A friend came up and showed me how to set lines for turtles.  I ended up catching 4 turtles this past weekend.  A 28lbr a 20lbr and two 11 lbrs.  hopin to make soup.  anyone got any good recipes?  they are currently sitting in 55 gal drums with water to flush em out. 

pics of the two big ones. 

the 28lbr.  you can see the 11lbr on the ground beside me.

No recipe's but I always heard if you take your finger and rub 'em behind their ears they'll crawl right out of their shell for you.  :biggrin:

I'll rub em all right.  but it'll be with a hatchet.   :laf:

i dont have a soup recipe but i have had it fried and loved it
my goal: do as much as I can, as fast as I can, for as long as I can, and at the end of the day if I'm not satisfied I will be to wore out to care

bigben

I hear it is good fried.  just haven't tried it yet.

We used to roll it in flour, brown it good, then dump it in a roaster with cream of mushroom soup. I will try to get the exact recipe for you if I can catch of my brother.
sometimes I wonder....is that getting closer..... then it hits me

I had a personal conflict the other day, now I'm not speaking to myself.... I'm getting lonesome

I met the girl of my dreams, I was the man of her dreams too.....she used the term "nightmares" though.

I like my fingers.  I tried cutting them off once.  and it was painful then.  having something knawin on it don't sound much better.
