We caught this in a creek near Centreville yesterday. My guess was that he was about 50lbs.

Talking about the turtle, not me.

We didn't cook him, he was released unharmed. We were way back in the woods and only had a 4 wheeler.

Nobody knows. The literature says (from limited studies) they all grow to about 30 lbs in the first 8-10 yrs, then after that it's extremely variable.

OG hatched him from an egg right after The Great War ended. He was a mere teenager at the time.

There are little groves in their lower jaw. There is a grove for each year. Next time, run your finger along the inside of lower jaw.

What do you have to barter for one? Got a turkey that needs killing?
