A heartwarming video has emerged of a boater freeing a sea turtle from a fishing net off the coast of Cedar Key, Florida.

The footage, filmed earlier this month, shows the man pulling the turtle out of the water and cutting it free from the net before he releases it in the ocean.

The filmer wrote online: ''We were going back to the spot from where we had drifted from when we saw the top of a fishing rod sticking up out of the water.''

''We came up to it and saw something next to it. It moved and took the rod with it, that's when we realized it was a sea turtle attached to it.''

''My dad pulled the struggling turtle out of the water and cut it free. It wasn't bleeding so we released the sea turtle back into the sea'', she added.
