Here's a new one for you. I was out on Geist Reservoir today and I had a snapping turtle pop up right in front of my boat while i was cruising at like 5mph. No time to react i heard him bounced down the underside of my boat I felt him hit the engine then all of a sudden I heard the engine rev really high. I lost all forward momentum. This turtle was larger then a 5 gallon bucket lid and he then swam away. Needless to say i was a little bad mainly because I had a 2 mile ride back to the dock with the 28lb trolling motor. 14ft boat my large self and fishing gear made for a slow ride. But on a good note I got to meet the owner of Red Dirt Bait Company (super nice guy)as I was on my way to the ramp. Caught a nice 2lb large mouth today.
