Hooked into this guy's foot with a streamer today. Thought I was caught on a branch so was slowly stripping in to save my fly, then some him emerge. Felt bad... does hooking into a turtle's foot doom the critter? Didn't know if there was anything I could do to help so just set him on a rock right by the water and he waddled back in. Just glad I wasn't hooked into the alligator snapping turtle I saw out.
