I've seen turtles here out swimming with ice on the lake. I guess some don't hibernate. They like to follow me around and try to eat my float then when I see them dive down I reel in. Caught a bunch of those in my time, will certainly eat a jig.

There's that snake again

Tastes like chicken Dave!

Those turtles can dive off of that dock in a heartbeat. I’ll take a pass on the snake!

Snakes don't bother me, had some as pets over the years. Caught a big water snake when I was a kid and put it in a metal minnow bucket to take home. It escaped the bucket and wrapped itself around my dad's leg for the entire ride home. Stopped at a lake close to home and parents made me let it go. They are escape artists.

they sure can bro and at the size of them river cooters they make a rather large distracting SPLASH , one thing that is interesting though is one of them is way more likely to watch me with a side eye than jump , we had us a few conversations about getting all jumpy over lil ole me and it might be it understands I ain't the enemy ....
