Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations Can Snapping Turtles Eat Healthy Minnows?

I've had snapping turtles in ponds before. It will probably eat some minnows, but not enough to make a difference.

If you want to clear out the minnows, you could probably just catch a 11"-13" LMB and put it in the detention pond for a few days.
