Fishingkats,
Have you seen many quail down by the river this year? I have a lease a couple of mile down river where your fishing. good times down that way in the winter hunting quail with my dogs. never have fished the river except shooting a few ducks and snows.

Nice turtle .. Doesnt look big.. heres mine that weighs a few oz.
if you look at that pic of the turtle you dont see the
4/0 hook but you can see the 50# string
i let him keep the hook but had to retie the rest and cut about 4 foot off of my main line he did a number on it

Ya I've hauled in a couple of good size turtles from ponds off of the Arkansas river. They feel like lunkers but its pretty scary when you finally realize what they are and its in the middle of the night also hard to get the hook out when they're trying to take a bite out of you.
