Got clawed by a 32 lber

[NJ219bands]

Went carping in 84 degree Colonial Lake this evening for the first time this year before a thunderstorm ⛈️. Two aerators were operating. A lot of moss and weeds were in the water. Threw out corn 🌽 for chum, then caught and released a 32 lb snapping turtle 🐢 with canned whole kernel corn 🌽 on 12 lb test line with my last cast of the day just before the thunderstorm arrived. Took pictures and made videos. Got clawed on both hands. https://youtube.com/shorts/poY2S2BI9nQ

Good thing you aren't on blood thinners.
