Good news for Ohio's noodlers and snoodlers: It will be soon OK to hunt snapping and softshell turtles again. Here are the dates.
| Special to The Columbus DispatchImitating his purring ancestors, the neighborhood's resident black-and-white feline warily crept across wet grass to get a closer look at an odd creature of far more ancient lineage.
The snapper likely had crawled out of the stream below, after a long-awaited rain had raised the stream's flow. In any case, a big turtle’s unexpected appearance on the lawn is a sight. Opening day is July 1. The season for taking snapping and softshell turtles runs through Dec. 31, although frigid temperatures before the closing date can push snappers into a state of dormancy spent in the mud at the bottom of ponds.
