Description:
Turtle was caught on trotline, so it was immediately taken to the bank to see if hook removal was possible. Luckily, the hook came out fairly easy, as it was only stuck in the hard beak. Since I always have a camera with me, I snapped a few pictures and it was released back into the river.
