13 Then a voice told him, "Get up, Peter. Kill and eat."
That comes straight from Acts 10:10-13.
There are some people down here that do it. They call it logging, some of them have came back with some pretty large cats. I'm not sure how they really go about it, but I think you just walk around shallow water in a creek and stick your hands down in holes or by logs.
Turtles tend to go headfirst into holes, so you can grab them from behind without getting bit. Big catfish like to go in sunken hollow logs. You can plug up one end and grab them in the other. I've done this a time or two, but not very successfully. Whiskey playeda major role in my decision making at the time. if you are interested in the practice, check out the documentary "Anything I Catch." You will see guys who were completely submerged breaking the surface while holding on to an enormous turtle.

Yeah, it helps to be immune to cottonmouth venom as well. And if yer doing that in the ole miss or a big river, watch out for eels. Basically, if you dont care about using your hands long term, go ahead! And dont forget the booze! I did it once and chickened out. EJ
My dad grew up in East Texas and they use to do this. Told my you had to be carefull becouse sometimes you would find a big snake.
