I found a water moccossin in an anchor locker once. If that boat had been in the water, you would have seen my imitation of Jesus!

Birdshot in a revolver works or a big azz knife.






Last snake I saw got caught in a hole in the railing of my garage door.... I closed the garage door and threw the two pieces in the field behind my house.... The only good snake is a dead snake ... just like terrorists.

I think i would have jumped off and swam!!!! Called the lake patrol to tow the dam thing in and let the owner deal with it!!

Normally i dont have problems with snakes....ive held them before but its always been on "my terms" so to speak....getting a surprise like this freaked me out bigtime!

These work very well. I shot an attacking water moccasin with one at VERY close range. I was going to do a follow up shot but it was'nt needed.
