FishDr Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 You must have been really slow-rolling it for a turtle to get hooked in the leg. Cool colors on the turtle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbass Posted January 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 True. About 6 turns of the reel I felt a light hit and set the hook which didn't feel right. Almost like bouncing off a log, then felt the pulling but it didn't come up so I was thinking gar. There where ottors in the area and I was really hoping it was not one of them.

FishDr Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 There where ottors in the area and I was really hoping it was not one of them. I'm with you there - you definitely don't want to try to unhook 30-lbs of angry, writhing otter - not with their weasel like speed and teeth!
