I have a question for this fish wise group. Today we had a very large channel cat floating, about 26-28 inches long. First time I have had a big one float. Moments later my wife and I see this really big snapping turtle, this guy is a good 2 feet long from mouth to tail. Here is the question, Is he there because of the floating fish ?? OR, did he cause the floating fish? He will eat the floating fish this I know as we watched him try to eat it. Are snappers a problem for a fish pond? Or not? thanks, hope you all are having a great summer! I love reading all the great info that can be found in these pages!
