That is NOT a CATFISH!!! (DANGEROUS)

In this video, my buddy Stav and I are fishing in a small urban creek in Texas!
Stav hooks a nice flathead, and I end up missing a few fish, before something very heavy and slow takes my bait.
This accidental catch was one of the coolest of my life. No other animal demands respect like the Alligator Snapping Turtle!

The Alligator Snapping Turtle is truly an animal not to be fucked with. I've had 3 encounters with one of these monsters before, and it hasn't always gone my way. These turtles have a bite that could easily mechanically amputate your hand or worse. When I first held one I thought I was in the presence of a true dinosaur of the deep. But this video was impressive!

Thank you for turning that beautiful turtle loose!! I am 55 now, when I was 14 playing on the edge of a Bayou in Louisiana I came across one way bigger than Lurch at the Dallas Aquarium. These older guys paddled up in a canoe and I was telling them about it. They did not believe me, so one guy goes bare foot sticking it in the muddy water. I screamed "No you dont understand this turtle is REAL BIG!!!" Turtles head flung by his leg like a dragon as he was hopping away in terror. Turtle calmly walked out and onto the sandbar like a baby dinosaur. They drug their canoe over and barely got it in the canoe and loaded it it their truck and took off saying they would be back and turn it loose and drive it by my house to prove how big it was. I was there waiting till dark, no turtle. I hope it made them sick if they ate it.

We have some huge ones on the river we live on in Alabama .They tend to leave humans alone unless they are bothered .My wife fishes around them all the time and has caught a lot of them which were released unharmed .She has never had any issues with Alligator Gar either which she has caught and released .She has cut herself more on the scales and shell releasing both more than anything else .The most dangerous creatures on the river are not the alligators ,turtles ,cottonmouths or even bears but feral hogs .Why she always carries her Mauser and a high caliber pistol with her while fishing .It is to protect herself from hogs not snakes or alligators .She tries to avoid the areas they hang out in if she can .I would put my money more on a hog killing a human than a snapping turtle .I formerly did water retrieval in our local rescue unit .It is a bad thing to witness after the turtles ,gators and catfish have a meal on a drowning victim .Sad but that is just nature being nature .They will bite and it is brutal when they do but they generally avoid humans if possible .Most get bitten by stepping on them wading or tempting those jaws and beak in foolish acts usually after one too many adult beverages .

I had always heard about the Alligator Snapping Turtle here in Missouri when I was younger and the only one I had seen was the one that Bass Pro Shop had freshwater in tank in Springfield, MO. Then one day my Dad and I were out fishing for smallmouth and goggle-eye(rock bass) in a jon boat on one of the rivers where I grew up fishing and I saw a Alligator Snapper in shallow water the top of the shell was at least 3 foot in diameter its head was close the size of a basketball....yes huge! I so wish that I could have gotten a picture of it, but it defiantly was a sight to see! I guessed it to be 100 - 120 lbs. but that might be underestimating it! So I understand why you got so excited when you caught this one! Nice flathead and blue cat catches 👍 ! Also the dingy water will make the blues take on a more whiter light skin color.
