I would be game going after snapping turtles. I have been next to a 125# one and certainly wouldn't want one of my appendages in it's mouth. It's head was about the size of mine. Where do you hunt them?

Always on the watch out for cottonmouths, beavers and snapping turtles. Also don't want to wear anything shinny like a wedding ring. Don't want alligator gar or needle nose gar biting down on you.

Had to look up ceviche. It's been a good day. I have learned something new.

We are probably not quite that adventurous. We just filleted and fried them.

In Kentucky, as a kid, my grandfather would take me out to the smaller rivers and streams to go after them. You basically have to reach back in their burrows in the bank. Not so bad if it’s the tail end, but if it’s the head…you better be fast! Only way to tell the difference quickly is to feel the shell for the v notch which indicates the tail.

I have met more than one hillbilly with crooked fingers from being to slow on the draw. Probably a bit too much liquid courage

If you can go on safari and hunt elephant and leopard you can face down a bowl of fish!!! all kidding aside use a standard ceviche recipie and add mango you will not be sorry (only certain fish work well for this though)

Raw fish, cilantro (coriander), tomatoes, avocados & such diced up and mixed up like a salad. Usually with lime juice spritzed over the top.

You really want to use about 1/2 lemon juice (6-12 depending on batch size)1/2 line juice( 6-12 depending on batch size) and 1 orange you are counting on the acid from the citrus to cook the fish

I forgot about this thread during ice season! It was a really poor winter for perch and we never caught a walleye but we managed to get quite a few nice pike. Here is a few of them.
