Hey all!
I've been fishing in my community lake "Gold Key" and went a little deeper (really not that deep) with my rattle worm, it was the evening and something grabbed my line. At first I thought I was caught on something so I wiggled around and gave the line some slack, something was down there and it wouldn't come up. It went under my kayak and moved me around a bit. My pole was bent. I know for a fact that we have snapping turtles in the lake and some are huge, I also know that we have catfish, bass, walleye and other "little" fish.
My question,
Wouldn't a snapper swim around or just bite the lure off? I fought this thing for quite some time and it never came close enough to the top of the water to where I could see what it was. Ended up breaking my line and taking my rattle worm.
I had the movie Jaws going through my head the whole time! LOL. I know we don't stock the lake with Muskie (sp)? but you never know what some people will do.
