I like having a few snappers in my pond. They're naturally a part of that ecosystem and I don't see where they're "eating all my fish" as everyone tells me. They're pretty cool in a prehistoric kinda way.
Unfortunately, sometimes when fishing for catfish we catch one and they've swallowed the hook, so we go ahead and shoot 'em. But if hooked in the mouth we can usually get the it out and let them go, although the process leaves us full of adrenaline and kinda shakey.
