wow...that's awesome...

I'll never forget - last summer my wife and I were catfishing, and just sitting waiting when all the sudden her pole doubled over and the reel started SCREAMING. After a half hour fight, we could here it splashing in the dark close to us, so I grabbed a flashlight. My wife made one last pull and lo and behold it wasn't the record catfish we thought...

It was a soft shell turtle about the size of a stop sign (no exaggeration). Strange experience...we were really dissappointed since we thought she was fighting a monster catfish, but it the same time it was pretty cool to see that HUGE turtle.

and then we spent like two hours trying to unhook it without losing any fingers...that wasn't much fun..those things have surprisingly long necks!

ive never seen a softshell live and didnt think they where dangerous lol

well they have a very nastly looking beak-like mouth...I'm sure it could do some damage to a finger...possibly even amputate one.
