[quote 4poundonly]Nice report [cool] You can catch those bait theives with smaller hooks soon as you feel a slight tug set the hook usally does the trick. And I think turtles are protected species pretty sure you cant harvest them.[/quote]
I believe the turtles we have at lake mead are Texas soft shelled turtles. From what I read they taste great are pretty abundant and are not protected. I myself could not kill one but to each his own lol.
I have had trips at mead where I have caught 3+ turtles in an hour. They put up one hell of a fight!
