Production[edit]
Ferd Sebastian said the film was written as a vehicle for Claudia Jennings, with whom they had worked on The Single Girls. "She wanted to do a film with not a lot of dialog, so Gator Bait was it," said Sebastian. "As I really like to work with the Cajun people. We all piled into our motorhome and left LA to go to La. We were headed for the swamps, Myself, Bev, Claudia, our two boys a dog and a pregnamt cat. It was by far the most fun shoot I have ever been on."[2]
