THE CROCODILE HUNTING AREA

The hunt will take place on a  hunting concession in the Northwest Province of South Africa. The outfitter's average crocodile in this area is over 12 feet in length. The outfitter told me that he has taken Crocs up to almost 16 ft. on this concession!

The hunting areas consist of 7,000 acres and features a good-sized reservoir that is teeming with large crocodiles. This is beautiful crocodile country and the size of the reservoir does expand during the rainy season in the spring. The reservoir's water level goes down during the dryer months, concentrating the crocs in the main portion of the reservoir. The big crocodiles like to lay back in the shallows at the head of the reservoir to catch bushbuck, impala, and other game.

The terrain is mostly flat and sandy with heavy brush and as one gets closer to the reservoir, it starts to become more open with good cover for stalking crocodiles. This area has an abundance of plains game and there are lots of rhino and Cape buffalo ($8,500) in the area also.

THE CROCODILE HUNT

This hunt for wild crocodiles in South Africa will be primarily done on foot. You will walk and stalk, always keeping a lookout for a trophy crocodile either sunning himself or lurking in the water waiting on prey. Once a big croc is spotted, you will decide on a plan and stalk to within shooting distance of the trophy crocodile.  An accurate shot is necessary to pin the croc on shore and prevent him from escaping into the water and disappearing. Crocodiles that face some hunting pressure are extremely cunning, as they possess excellent senses of hearing, smell, and vision.  Sneaking up on a trophy crocodile is a lot more challenging and exciting than many hunters realize.

The outfitter has obtained permits to be able to hunt these crocodiles legally. That makes this hunt significantly different than many of the other crocodile hunts in South Africa where the permits used are not issued for the property you are hunting on, and therefore are technically illegal.

PLAINS GAME

Once you are successful taking your trophy bull crocodile you may continue hunting for the plains game species that are numerous in the area. Trophy fees for other species are listed below:

The best time of year to Hunt Crocodiles in South Africa is February through November when the reservoir is stable and the crocodiles are concentrated on the banks sunning.
