For years people have told me that Softshell Turtle is some of the best meat they have ever tasted. Im not the type to knock something before I try it so one of these days so one of these days when I catch one, instead of throwing it back i'm going to keep it. I also checked a few YouTube videos to see how it is cleaned and cooked and it aint for the faint of heart. I usually catch these things while cat fishing with cut bait on the bottom of a lake. Most people make them into a stew or soup.
Here is a video of it being slaughtered for the kitchen....(WARNING GRAPHIC)
