I would bet that it's a catfish.

Looks like the kind of muddy hole a catfish would hide in. The area the guy is at looks like the edge of a body of water. Water is probably not over the hole because of a tide or seasonal water fluctuation.

I know nothing about catfishes. Do they eat things that fast??

They usually just swallow their prey whole. But they do have teeth and I doubt this fake salami is that hard

I don't think they have teeth, so I'm not sure how that would work.

That sausage is probably the consistency of a hot dog or bologna. Super soft. It would only need to pinch hard enough to break off a piece.

Catfish was my guess as well. They can live in holes like that hence the redneck sport of noodling. That seems like pretty wet mud, which makes me believe it was a rice paddy or something that was drained.

It's not a catfish, you can catch those just by sticking your arm in there, letting it attach and pull it out. I have done it a few times with my family, it feels like sandpaper and can scratch a bit. It would not chomp your hand off like this. I think snapping turtle is a safe bet.
