“Swamp People” Season 6

Swamp People TV show is not necessarily for just outdoors people. Like Duck Dynasty, the series has a quality that appeals to people who are not hunters and fishermen.  Watching the Cajuns speaking Cajun French in this series is rather interesting and unique.  That is all the bait I need to watch men wade into the swamp and catch catfish. To say nothing of the alligator hunting, and it is quite a chilling experience.

Yes, it is a reality TV show, but at least they are civil and forego dramatizing their flaws like the Kardashians.  Most would say this is one of the best reality shows and that it is the top show on the History Channel. They set a nice example of how to treat others, being pleasant to one another and helping each other.

The show takes a look inside one of the last American frontiers when Troy and the other swampers go on a 30-day alligator hunt, avoiding flood water and outwitting the smartest gators. Swamp hunters fight massive alligators and Mother Nature and journey into previously unknown, hostile areas of the swamp. Shrewd gators try to outwit the hunters’ new methods of capturing their prey. Whether using new indigenous bait, old decoys or employing a primitive alternative to the modern hook, these hunters constantly adjust their tactics to catch and fill their tags.

The series is exciting and nerve-racking while they wrestle with an alligator. The swampers protect people from gigantic gators by going after them in areas where people are in danger. They even assist crayfishers when the gators go after their cages. In light of all that danger, the series embodies a way of life far better than any other reality TV show.  All in all, the series is worth watching because it offers a learning experience while keeping you on the edge of your seat.
