Bro this was a complete accident!! We had three different rods out when we noticed one of the bobbers was missing. Me and my friend rushed to it and realized it was a fish that looked like a circle! Don’t worry, the turtle did not get harmed.

TRYING FRESHWATER… ⤵️ After what seemed like Years but it’s only been a few months….after losing my baby dog all too suddenly, moving States and complete brain fog…I’m out and about exploring my new surroundings!l and brought my old girl Pep with me… Wel let me tell you freshwater fishing is a whole different breed of animal…teaching myself new skills and talking to the locals. Found myself some Thai fisher girls who taught me a thing or two. Caught zero fish but a turtle came and said hello to my bait! Feels good to be out! Tight Lines my friends 🐟💪🏻
