Alligator guide
Night is when the Alligator shows up in Mushgrove Swamp, and the weather has to be Foggy or Rain, in Spring, with Fish Head as bait. That is a narrow window for a Legendary, so expect to wait for it.
The body is huge. A typical Alligator weighs 250 kg, with a recorded range of 150 to 450 kg, and the max ranks 194th of 663 by weight. The money is more modest: at C$2.30 per kg it averages C$575, 382nd of 742 by average value. In other words, it is heavier than it is valuable. Base XP is 400.
The same swamp sells the Frog Rod and the Fungal Rod, so you can buy your gear on site. That matters because the Alligator is the sort of catch where you want the fight to go your way once the rare conditions finally show up.
Verdict: a good Legendary target if you are already in Mushgrove Swamp at night. If you only care about cash, the C$575 average will not justify chasing it over better-paying fish. Go for the weight and the 400 XP.
