I hung into a huge turtle last weekend at the local state park. Biggest thing I have ever had on a fishing pole. At one point he came up and gave me the evil eye. His head was easily 4 to 5 inches across. I was fishing from shore and had 12 pound test with the drag set perfect. HE PLAYED ME for a while and then decided to spool me. He acted like I wasn't even there! Now I know how a mosquito must feel when they are nonchalantly swatted!
