You're right about good flathead grabbin' in the Red.Nothing like wigglin' your fingers in a hole to see what grabs 'em.

Course what grabs on could be an Aligator Snapping Turtle.
You will know right away, cause you arm will end at the wrist.

I catch turtles too,the bigger the better.On a snapper the only easy handle is the tail.

The problem with snappers is that when young they sometimes get their tails bit off by their buddies.Then when they grow up they don't have the handle.:)

I should have mentioned that alligator snappers aren't legal to take in Okla. but they are legal in some places.

The common snappers don't get as big as alligator snappers but they're more pugnacious and dangerous.Mean critters.:)

Or a water moccasin or 10.
