I do not know what it is about my pond, other than it is very well stocked, that is attracting giant snapping turtles. I caught the one in (photo) sunning by my house two years ago. Last and this year I have a couple that are larger than the one I caught. I am concerned about small kids getting too close to them, especially in the water. I have tried trapping them with cages, but these guys are too big for that. Tried shooting with buckshot, but cannot get a clear shot since they are in the water.
Any suggestions of how I can get them. If I can get them out of the water, I can take care of it. Or if I can use any type of bait and tackle.
