  LMAO, and blow beer out my nose! ;D Pat, the only reason it'd spit me out is I'm too darn sweet. It's funny, today I was turkey hunting and set up next to a big Palmetto thicket and had a two and a half foot Mocassin crawl right by me about 8' away. I couldn't find a stick and didn't want to use a 3 1/2" Nitro to kill an ol' snake. especialy with a bird that Gobbled a little while before. Bad part is I'm going back in the morning in the dark, It's the last day of the season and the old boy only has two hens and I'm sure he'll roost in the same place. And I already got 3 of his brothers'. ;)

There are plenty of them out and about here in N TX right now.  I usually see them hangin' out near the banks of pretty much anywhere there is water.  Ive also been seein' plenty of, maybe more,   diamond backed watersnakes.  They look almost identical to a water moc. except they can get longer and are nonvemonous.. I shot one yesterday when bowfishin, got em' pinned up and drying right now.  Good luck.

yeah the diamondback watersnake smells like a skunk, literally.  I cleaned two of em yesterday and stopped cuttin right before the genital slit.  From my experience, once you start cuttin' down south the musk intensifies enough to initiate a gagging reflex.

I watched a Redneck in a Truck swerve off the Road onto the Shoulder ....just to run over a 5 foot Bull Snake on the Way Home from Work today.....He skidded on Him....so it rolled Him up and ruined all of the Hide too....wasn't nothing to salvage....what a Moron!!!

  Cool, two young boys working for me told me they got me a couple of snakes over the weekend. Ones a 5' Eastern rattler and the other one is an increditable, 5' Water Mocassin. I haven't seen one that big in a very long time.

   Yes sir! and the one's Granddad owns a 3,000 acre cattle ranch loaded with turkeys, deer ,and hogs. And recently, 15 Pacu monkeys escaped from a Safari Park about to open just down the road from his ranch. I can't wait till they put the Rhino's in. I guess these joker's never saw a Brahma bull walk through a fence. >:D ;D

If you get lucky they will put in American Bison.  They don't even notice a fence. Justin

aries: im not too far from ya. i live about 15 mi north of clinton. ive been seein a few mocs around the ponds here. the rattler roundup in mangum is as big as the apache one or bigger. the mangum area is loaded with rattlers. they even have had national geographic out there doin a documentary or two on the large population of rattlers in that particular area. i go down there to cut mesquite for the smoker.            -carpenter
