Just one of the hazzards of noodling I guess.

You might want to double check your sources on the largest turtles. I don't think snapping turtles are in the top ten in terms of size. Leatherbacks approach 2,000lbs when fully grown.

I thought noodling was defined as hand fishing. When I saw that turtle I had serious doubts about your sanity, lol. I saw it was caught on a line, much safer. That's a dandy turtle. Caught one years ago on a jug line that we put on a scale. Topped out over 130 pounds.

I was pulling his tail and lifting him out of the water at the same time and he would not budge. I weigh close to 200 so I'm guessing he weighed atleast 150 and was strong as hell. I think he could easily snap an ankle or wrist

This is exactly why noodling is crazy. That alligator snapper is prob at least 85 to 100 lbs. Where is this at?

Well you probably would not have to worry about it happening twice because that sucker would take your arm.

I have a great spot for you to try! Two weeks ago we got one up that was not too much smaller than this one.
