Dude....I would shoot the bottom out of my boat if that was in it.

Haha I would have if i would've had a gun

bang bang bang bang bang bang,..reload,..repeat.

Cotton mouth

Exactly right. If you were to let it chew on you it might cause some swelling from the venom, but that's it.

We always called them hog chokers cool snake

I got to see one of those guys out on Lake Whitney last week. First one I've ever seen. Pretty cool little snake and not aggressive at all.

I'm sure he just wanted to talk, but i do recall someone telling me all venomous snakes had diamond shaped heads. I couldn't take the risk

I'm with you Andrew. Only good snake is a dead one

One look at a rattlesnake bite will make you a snake killer

OUCH!

I will never forget the seniors from Abilene high and the snake we put on the boat.

NO SIR, IM OUT

not here, hoss. I've been envenomated worse than that. still love snakes. even the poisonous ones.
reminds me of the folks that want to kill all sharks just because they're sharks
total lack of understanding & irrational fear, but we've all been down that road on threads like these many times.

"snake ID" threads like this should be banned

nice hognose pics, BTW. only seen 1 in my life, ever.

Make great pets!!!! When they puff up really might think a cobra got out of the zoo lol. More like lap cats though
