Oh my yes definitely has snappers. Why would you trap them though? There pretty fun to catch but they are also predators , can cause heck on water fowl and muskrats I might have to start trapping then. That's probably why I didn't see no sign. Give me some tips on catching them do you skin em? Or what do you do with them?

You can sell them to buyers or you can eat them. They are quite tasty.

I don’t sell them, but. People do buy the shells. And you would sell them whole and alive to a buyer if you have one close by. They usually pay by the pound around here. I am no expert on them.
There are guys that will chime in or you could check the archives.
Stop over cooking your meat! It isn’t gamey, it’s over cooked!
