Some of the guys I've seen fishing are dangerous with a rattle trap. They hook everyone on the boat with it. I'd hate to see this same group of guys with 410's. Haha. They shoot everyone and put holes in the boat trying to hit a snake. Lol.

The only place I have had that happen to me was on Cedar Creek also. It came across the creek at us and started bumping the side of the boat and then tried climbing into the boat by way of the motor. We were fishing the other side of the creek and never even cast in its direction so I have no idea what made it so mad.

Yea I saw more snakes at Cedar Creek last weekend than I have seen at all other lakes combined this year. I dunno if the rapid rise in water level is causing them to be active or what but I don't like it.

Turn the boat around so he can climb up on the outboard. Have the outboard full tilt up and when he get half way on the motor, START IT UP! Snake chili meat for tacos! yummy.

 This was on the back deck of my dads boat at Cedar Creek this past weekend. I'm sure glad I wasn't there because I would have messed all over my pants! lol

Fished broken bow last week and saw the biggest rattlesnake I have ever seen swimming across a cove. Did not know they would swim like that. Looked to be about 5 foot long. Bunch of rattles. All the high water had him on the move I guess. My partner wanted to kill it with my landing net. But it was my boat and I said no way!

There were a couple guys in our channel on the lower west side of Cedar Creek this weekend, came in idling real fast, fished, then then gunned the motor on the way out. When I yelled at them for gunning it, they pointed to a 3-4 foot Texas diamond-back water snake (non-poisonous) swimming, to one side of them. Water being up definitely has them moving around.
More Rain!?!

Haha that was not us because we just jumped on the trolling motor to evade the snake chasing us. But I was about ready to fire up that big motor if I need to!! I would not have cared who's fishing I messed up if that snake came any closer.

I thought that was the reason we are required to carry an oar onboard. One solid whack with a wooden oar and you won't have to worry about anything but finding new shorts. my thoughts and actions exactly...one good wack and back to fishing
