Eeeuwww. Eat redears? That's like eating toad soup or dog soup or something. Blecch. Alligator snapper and softshell are the "eating" turtles.
I think the .22 Mag. is a better recipe. It knocks them about 15' out of the water.
All seriousness aside, I guess a "trap and relocate" project could work. Pretty labor intensive though. Get ready for some hard work. Maybe an alligator would keep the numbers in check.
I know exactly what they eat, but I have no idea what the impact of a large turtle population is on a pond. Anyone know?
