It's coming out regardless, when I saw him, he just rolled on his back and looked at me like "what are you looking at?" I flung my King Kong swimbait at him, in an unfruitful attempt at 'catching' him, he just ducked under the water for a second, then came floating back up, on his back pimpin'. All of this time he's 12 feet away from me, not afraid of anything, other than a 10" swimbait. My Gamo Whisper varmit rifle may get used for more than paper targets this week while wife's at work, although I will attempt at trapping him first. Cecil, is a conniber trap underwater? I couldn't have that thing thrashing about, suffocating, Jen would de-jewel me, she got terribly upset with the whole 'turtle incident'.
I would like to add that I DO NOT have any reason, other than to see it 'swim', for throwing a 10" inch swimbait in my pond, NO 10 lb. LMB yet...
