Living here in southern New England with some pretty big snapping turtles due to all the swamps located in the valleys. When I was young there was a guy who would back his car up to this pond,attach a heavy duty line with a hook and a chuck of fresh ham on it. When he knew he had a turtle on he would start the car and pull the turtle out. Was a memory for sure.

You should come to SC, their everywhere. There's a little creek behind my cabin, it used to have a ridge of dirt piled up alongside where the state cleared ditches after hurricane Hugo. I was loading this dirt on my truck and putting it in the gardens. The snapping turtles loved to lay eggs in those mounds of dirt and while I was shoveling they were hatching and baby turtles were crawling all over my truck 😅

Here in Tennessee turtle hunting used to be very common. There is no season that I am aware of but I was taught to use a jug and the turtle will go to the bank on its own

Trying to prove to my dad we DO get snapping turtles here in PA. We got a big one living in the creek in our yard.

Why do they have to stay in a tote for a few days?

It's to flush them out

I love trapping turtles and those farm ponds that are never trapped. We will be putting more out.

Don’t get me wrong I used to do a lot of hunting and fishing and still love catching blue gill and bass catfish etc fileting them and cooking them up but I really hate seeing these old big turtles being killed some are sooo old and deserve to be left alone to live another 50-100 years

I understand and I only do this in ponds where I'm asked to remove them. Because they damage the breast work of a dam or cause problems with cattle. This pond was a irrigation pond and they was getting stuck in the pipe to the pump. So I removed a few the farmer.
