Relax & Guarding  Awake and now really Guarding!!!!  I was gonna ignore the guard and visit the homeowner underneath, but then, the guard looks like he was in a bad mood (venomous or not) so I tossed in a nibble to feed the homeowner and move on my way...Do you think anybody home beside the guard?...sigh...hehehe

I was on a creek on LL today and heard something that I thought was a bird, but I had never heard one make that sound, so I got tho looking around on the bank and saw that a snake had found himself a frog. I hate snakes so I trolled on down the creek and gave him his space.

Reggie I would have moved on. 2 or 3 times in my life I have had to beat them with a paddle because they were trying to crawl in the boat. I'm definetly not crazy about them.

That is exactly why I try to keep an extra old pole with me...Ive made a few snakes curl up in my day. I brok my last one this past summer. As I broke it because it pretty much on land right next to me (night fishing)and was continuing to wack at it because I was not seeing it curl too much an old man and his grandson crested the hill behind me. I told him there was a snake and I was not a crazy person.

I would just keep moving ... plenty of places to fish.
My buddy would pull out the shotgun and shoot it cuz he hates snakes and then move on.
