That critter sure has that hook deep
Been running trot lines down at Rend Lake the last couple weekends, I've been using a mix of chicken thighs, cut shad, and hot dogs. I think I've caught more turtles than I have catfish.
I've read that garlic can help keep the turtles away so I will be marinating my baits in garlic powder/garlic salt before the next trip.
Any other tips? Attachment 406777

I was fishing for carp recently and was plagued by turtles. I searched Google high and low for a solution but found nothing.
I'm gonna try surface fishing to see if I can avoid the turtles.
Turtles have to eat also

Ya'll don't have enough Cajuns up there to help eat the turtles.

I grew up in Mobile Alabama. I do miss the cajun influence in the food up here.
I did run into a fella in a small seafood restaurant. I order a shrimp po boy. He asked did I want it REAL Cajun seasoned.
2 bites in and my hair was sweaty. That fella right there meant it. Sure was good
