Default Howto Turtle Fishing?

Us coonasses from down the bayou like em! We used to tie a treble kook
right below a float. Almost anything works a bait, but we used to use a
chunk of slab bacon. If you get a big loggerhead or snapper on there,
you'll wish you hadn't.

Can anyone tell me how to catch a turtle? I like the box turtle or green
one.

Use regular fishing hook? What is as bait, chicken, pork, fish?

You want to catch turtles to eat them? You really are taking the
Chinese philosophy that "Everything with it's back to the sky is food",
literally.

The Diamond back terrapin of Maryland was harvested nearly to the point of
extinction
because of east coast american demand for its meat.
Even today, snapping turtles are eaten in the American south.
Eating turtles therefore is hardly a uniquely chinese custom.
