No, I have never done any turtle trapping.I have always wanted to get around to try maybe coons or coyotes, but I haven't. As soon as we can find a good spot, I will have to do some frog gigging.

We hope to trap turtles this year as soon as season starts. It will be a first for me, and is something that I have wanted to do for a long time. We received our hooks for Jaun's a few days ago. I'll be reporting with pics on how it goes. I have a lot to learn but have someone who has been there to show me how.

I have never tried turtle hunting, but my uncle Paul used to eat them. I would hunt one and I would eat one but I would probably be alone at the dinner table that night. When you go show me some pics and and how you got em, and if you have time show me how to cook them.

Yea, From the turtle I have had, it seems to be more like low quality chicken.Kinda tough. But, that could just be the way it was prepared.
PS: If you would like, You can post topics like this in small game hunting. I just wanted to tell you it was still small game in my opinion, so you know where to put it.Thanks Rohn, Matt D.

IT STARTS JULY FIRST? I just bought a guided turtle hunt for june 3rd! I don't know what im gonna do! Just kidding hahahaha. Yeah I would like to know how to field dress a turtle. I'm guessing you need a knife, a hammer, and a chisel.
