Cindy Barton Elmore of Leflore County, Greenwood, MS, caught this big boy in her brother-in-laws pond recently but her husband made her put him back. She said she lost four good minnows on that thing and wanted to cut it's head off and cook it...but they wanted it to get bigger. She said, WHAT!!! They are calling it an alligator snapping turtle. What a big turtle in our great wild and wonderful outdoors!
I've never tried turtle. Never really had the chance. Not many folks "hunt" them around here anymore, so we have plenty.
