If I were to say the only good bass is a dead bass on this forum people would be pissed, and rightfully so. They would correctly say that bass do not hurt anybody. Well, that snake is about as harmless as a bass. Yes, it could bite you and it might hurt. Here are some other things that could bite you and might hurt. Your dog. Your kid. Your cat. An ostrich. A wombat. I guess it's a good thing not everybody chooses some random animal to destroy for no reason.

King Snake
Good snake eats lots of rats and will kill and eat rattle snakes. Very agressive though.

Yes but if some bass were poisonous and some werent....and if they could somehow attack you...I think they would be more likely to be killed for the fact that some people won't take the time to check and see if it's dangerous or not because by then it's usually too late. IMO

Everyones gonna have their own opinion on whether to kill them or not. Me personally, I just let them go most of the time weather I know its poisonious or not. But I don't get upset if someone else kills one. I look at that person in the same sense how I look at spiders. the only good spider is a dead one.

Some of you folks need to get in the country more often. Why would you be so frightened of something......with no frkn legs?
Real snakes have ........legs...and the big den is in D.C.
These Texas snakes are just tryin' to make a livin'..like us..

well since there is no shortage of rats and more and more constrictor species being illegally let go im sure we wont have a shortage of snakes either so if you have to kil it kill it thats how it goes sometimes..

Texas Rat Snake. Correction...Dead Texas Rat Snake.

Bring that size 16 over........there was a frog on my patio eyeballing me earlier. I wouldn't want that thing getting out of hand. Haha

I found a rattler in the hallway where I worked a few years back (at night). I put it in a box and took it out back. I probably killed it later. I don't recall.

Fishing a point off Tiger Island on Falcon Tuesday,saw a snake swimming our way didn't think much about it at first. Then the boy asked,Dad, rattlesnakes swim? I said ya seen one on Ivie on time. He said, well you can say you've seen one on Falcon now too!He was within rods length from us and the boy was trying to piss him off with his brush hog when I hit high bypass on the tm and hauled butt the opposite way! He followed us 30 or 40 feet before he gave up on his free boat,cause if he got in, he could have it.... I'd be walkin on water! I'm not scared of snakes...I just don't like them!

gosh damn son just move over five feet and let it be. I bank fish all the time and see snakes bigger than that all the time just move out of its way and it will go away granted you killed this one but next time you see one and try to kill it for no good reason dont be surprised when it sneaks up on you and bits you on the...

My partner and I saw a big western diamondback sunning itself on a flat boulder at Lake Sutherland in eastern San Diego County one day. We decided we were going the other direction...
