Turtle vs. Duckl - Raming Speed !!!

Most turtle/duck interactions I've seen personally ends poorly for the duck. Mind you most of those turtles were snapping turtles.

One day fishing on the creek, a snapping turtle got a hold of my crappie I had on a stringer. The snapping turtle locked on and wasn't letting go. He must of been about 60-70 lbs easy. Managed to get him off the line when I drug him up on the bank. He was hissing with his mouth open. Definitely the meanest turtle I ever seen....
 
Not sure what to call that flapy skin around their necks, but always seemed to snag it when fishing for cat fish.  Nothing to get out cause the barb was already threw.  Just clip it off and pull it out.  Thing is,was usually alone and oh damn those things did not like being helped after drug away from a meal.
