I had a relative who is long gone now but he used to make turtle soup. It was awesome do not know the recipe though.
FRESHBAIT:
Like fishnboots said will work. There is also traps that you can make, kinda like a big minnow trap but allows the turtle to get in. You set them up near
shore so that the turtle will be able to stick his head up and breath. I use the trusted method of heavy black cord to a heavy wire leader with a large
treble hook, and a hunk of chicken thigh or what ever. I usually tie offr to a branch and toss it in the pond and then check it in a few hours.I'll set up
three or four down in the pond and get one on every line I set. I've caught them in as little as 5 or 10 minutes. Once caught I pull on the wire leader
to get the head to come out and then using a very sharp spade shovel or machete I chop the head off. I like mine lightly battere and then fried. Then
again what isn't good battered and fried.
