Careful, in those type of water ( lakes, musky rivers, local neighborhood lakes! etc ) there have been found amoebas that are literally brain eaters. Haha. Pretty weird huh. If you get some of those in your blood stream, could be deadly.
@PetePike1 he is holding the turtle with his left hand under the shell and guiding it with the tail, its a fucking snapping turtle after all he doesn't want it to swing around and bite him
i LOVE catching turtles. There's two in particular that are about three feet long that live in the lake by my house. They always evade me, but I get some pretty good glimpses of them. But since i can't seen to get them, ive been catching the one-footers that live in the creek leading two and from the lake. it's pretty fun
Snapping turtles get huge in northwest Florida. I frequently fish in the Appalachicola River and in sloughs flowing into it. My fishing partner and I set out a trot line one night hoping to catch catfish....the next day we had plenty of catfish and we also had an alligator snapping turtle hooked. We captured it and brought it home. On the ride home the turtle tore out everything in the trunk of the car...mats...insulation..wiring....everything. This one weighed 105 pounds. We ate it.
@27frisko hahahahahaah!!!!!!!! Thats hilarious dude! lol! It just caught me off gaurd, i was skimmin through comments, and I just started dying when I read yours lol!
Dude ur name is Kyle?! My name is Kyle and I'm also into herps. I find large common snapper in a stream this summer. But it was very mellow and only tried to escape when i was holding onto it's tail and the rear portion of it's carapace.
Only problem with this video I see is that you catch the turtle but stay in the water. Isn't there a chance there are probably other turtle like that in the water possible larger? I know they usually stay in one place, but they can move from time to time and turtle always think of your toes, and fingers, as food. Its a good vid but you should probably take it out of the water to safer land next time since your not looking down to much. Yeah I see the water is pretty clear
wow, thankfully we haven't got such turtles in germany (i hope). I have the deepest respect for them, because they can bite off a finger or something else, when you're careless. You're very brave ^^ i prefer to play and smooch with my greek tortoise
I rear turtles and tortoises, but I have a BIG problem with these guys. I just really don't like them, simply because they can cause you some SERIOUS damage if you give them half a chance.
Your a braver man than I. : )
I'd've preferred a nice cute Map or something to play with. xp
i was like 8 one time and i saw a snapper i got cocky and promtly jumped on its back and it flung me off the i grabbed by the tail and dragged it sence it was too heavy to carry an i had measured my 10 gallon fish tank earlier that day and it was 20 inches and i remembered the size and held it with my fingers spread apart and the shell beat 20 inches i was 8 and didnt think about records and let him go so man i really wish i could find him again. a true monster!
Sweet...so how exactly did you approach and grab this snapper? I have a clean/clear pond with 3 snappers that are about the same size as this one. I too, swim around and watch them but I haven't tried to catch one, yet :)
Lol tha t is the stupidest logic i have ever heard man! I have a baby Alligator Snapper, i am gonna take care of it till it reaches 200+ pounds, i love my little guy, its either bowser or samson or tank for the name.
Lol tha t is the stupidest logic i have ever heard man! I have a baby Alligator Snapper, i am gonna take care of it till it reaches 200+ pounds, i love my little guy, its either bowser or samson or tank for the name.
I found one of these today, I was out walking around in the rain by the river, hoping I'd see something. I tried to pick it up by the tail, but it snapped at the air and scared the shit out of me so I let it be.
That is one huge common snapper. No offense, but if the conditions were unfavorable for the snapper or it was injured, I would get someboby to cook that sucker up! I heard that turtle soop is really good. But great find anyway.
Thats about the size of the one I had in my back yard yesterday - crawled up from the lake. Almost took my hand off while trying to get it back into the water. At least 25+ lbs.
There was a huuuuge turtle in my backyard when I was younger and we had to call animal control in
The thing was so big that they didnt have a big enough net to catch it and they had to use one of those dog 'nooses' to catch it by the head It was really mean, it kept hissing over and over when someone would get close lool
It was probably double the size of the one he has in this video
That looks like an aligator snapper without the large ridges on its back, and those things dont run away like Cdp103188 said they do, they will stand their ground if they are big enough, in California they found a 50 year old 4 foot long 100lb alligator snapper, so be careful at what your grabbin at, if u get bit by him, ur gunna need to cut its head off cus its not gunna let go...
Black water? I can see his shorts..... Besides, what could possibly be in there that would hurt you? Snapping turtles don't just swim up and attack, they typically retreat when they see people in the water.
i would'nt your hand any closer as i have snapping turtles in my creek and in the summer they lay there eggs but usually a fox will come around and eat them but the turtle wont charge and bite you unless ur bothering it
