Bernie, I haven't seen any turtles..since hubby killed 2. I have spent many hours at the pond, its not very big so I would see them come up for air.
Speaking of shooting turtles I have a funny story for ya, Hubby came down to the pond as I was fishing, I had put a floater-diver grasshopper on with a bobber..(don't ask me why).. any way hubby had brought the 22 rifle since we had seen some turtles. Well my grasshopper was floating there and I moved my bobber and hubby said there is the turtle, I said where, he said close to your bobber. I didn't see it so I thought I would move my bobber again to get out of the way. Now each time I moved the bobber the grasshopper went under, when it stopped it floated. Hubby hollared "There it is!" and shot. I hollared "you shot my grasshopper!" he didnt understand what I meant till I reeled it in and all that was left was the piece that makes it dive and the ring that was attached to my line. LMAO He just looked at me and said, with a smug look on his face... "Good shot Huh!" :p
