[size 1]You talk about having a hard time posing for a picture. His neck is about 10 inches in lenth, but I could not get him to hold it out long enough to get a pic [shocked][/size]

He was a good 5-6 pounds, good thing I had a my Bigfishtackle Custom 30 pound class Battle rod with me... any one ever battled a turtle on the end of a rod knows what I am talking about....
