We are in the hottest time of the year, and that means that turtles are real active. In the last two weeks of fishing it has been a race as to which species, carp or turtle, can get to the bait first. In that period of time I have landed about 12 carp and exactly 7 snapping turtles. And, I'm not even counting the numerous times that sun turtles have chewed the bait, cut the hair and even eaten the hair stop. Here's a few tips on dealing with turtles.
1. Limit the prebaiting. Turtles will come to baited areas like bees to honey.
2. Move after the first turtle. You'd be surprised...moving to a new spot just 20 yards away may get you away from the turtles.
3. Forget method mix. Method is just a pile of bait that will greatly attract turtles.
4. Some places have big populations of turtles, some places don't. Stay away from "turtle spots" on hot days when they are most active.
