Went to ecofina this morn with the family, put in around 9:30. Caught 5 keeper trout, several shorts, 1 nice spanish, and probably 20 sharks. My dad managed to catch a sea turtle on a jig under a CT, which we photographed and then sent him on his way. I not sure what kind of turtle it is, so I figured someone on here might know. So if you could tell me, i would appreciate it.
(My guess was a kemps ridley, but I know nothing about turtles)
well, when the turtle bites a grub you have to handle the turtle so he doesnt swim off with a hook in his mouth. Call it harassing if you will, but it seems to be in the turtles best interest if he gets uncaught.
