I move here from Florida, I use to catch soft shelled turtle with friend all over the river and ponds. I have no been catching or try to catch any in kansas. My 8 year old son saw some picture and are interested in seeing how we catch it. My question is that, where in kansas can I catch soft shelled turtle or snapping turtle? I live in Overland Park and would like to find some where close. Anyone here knows? Thanks.

Not sure about Kansas but, Alligator Snapping Turtles are protected in many states. Common Snappers are different.
Just common snapping turtle no the endanger ones. Buy the way, what is the best time of year to catch the soft shelled one? Anyone here catch turtle, would like to bring my son along to see it. :)
