There is a thread talking about snapping turtles in the main reptile forum, so I though I would post up some pictures of some of the commons that I have caught over the last few years. Most of these I caught by jumping out of a small boat that I have, and I generally just release them after getting pictures.
And I have to give credit where it's due, my friend Mike (Mikeyy) is almost always with me helping catch these things. He's a bit more hesitant than me to go after them (not that I can blame him) but he's always there nonetheless.
These are probably only 10% of what I have caught, as the rest I usually get at night and don't usually take pictures when I get them at night. They just turn out as blobs on my camera.

the second picture looks like the turtle is smiling super big!
