Turtle trapping visitors
Some people occasionally look for a different way to spend their holidays. A couple of ardent out-
doorsmen from Covington, Ohio have come up with an unique idea. Everett Rice and Elmer (Buck)
Sampson are shown above handling two of the many snapping turtles they trapped in the Ausable River
near Crediton, during their two week stay in the area. Their wives stand well back as the turtles are
displayed for the benefit of the photographer. - T-A photo

turtles in Western Ontarit, but
for their wives it was the first
trip north. Three, Of the fOur
trapping triPs Were In the Credi-
ton area While the other was
near Winnipeg.
They set up their camping fa-
cilities on the farm of Earl Lewis
' in McGil_llYraY, Township on the
banks of the AuSable. At last
count they had trapped 110 turt
les, but the actual catch may
have been a little less, On sev-
eral occasions, a huge snapper
was seen sneaking through the
grass, heading back to the river,
having made an escape from his
cage,
The wire traps that are used
to catch turtles are about four
feet long, three feet wide and 18
inches high. Chunks of carp are
used as bait to entice the turtles
inside the trap. Most of the bait
is brought from the United States.
The Ohio men estimated some
of the turtles to weigh as much
as 25 pounds.
The turtles are taken back to
Ohio alive and put into water
troughs for about three weeks
to clean them up before they are
killed.
After the shells, heads and
feet are removed, the meat is
washed and put into plastic bags
and goes into the Sampson and
RiCeS' freezers. ,
Most people associate turtles
with turtle soup, but this is not
the case with the trappers from-
Ohio. The ladies said the meat
is very delicious after being
cooked and then fried.
