It's the only picture I got before it scooted off the pier and dove back into the water. I caught it in Florida on the bottom of a fresh water river with some dead shrimp. It's hard to judge the size from the pic but it's almost a foot long, has a real pointed nose, and its shell is flattened around the edge. Does anyone know what kind of turtle this is?
Thanks,
Fred
You caught a Florida softshell, Apalone ferox
Thanks very much, I'll look up some info on it.
