[QUOTE="TREY-L, post: 507944, member: 6073"] I made lots of summer money when I was a little kid by catching snapping turtles and baby crawfish (bait size). I cought most of them (the turtles) by hand and barefeet :shock:. It's pretty easy to do, you just wade around about chest deep, feeling around old stumps and tree tops, gently picking your feet up and placing them straight down on the bottom, being very careful never to slide them on the bottom. Once you locate a turtles shell, you can feel the ridges on the back, the old saying goes, "if you go up the bumpy road your going toward the head, if you go down the bumpy road your going toward the tail". Then the fun started, take one good last breath, then under water you grab the turtles tail and try to wrestle it out of the hole or mud or tree top. I only sold the snapping turtles, I released all the alligator snapping turtles that I caught. Mama made a mean gumbo with turtle meat in it. Ahh, memories........ [/QUOTE]
