A little late but found this little guy about a month ago while tracking a doe




How in the world did you see him????
He stopped to open a beer and dropped the cap. You can just see it under the leaf by the stick.

Thought you guys would appreciate something a FL/Everglades fishing guide I follow shared on his IG- I would imagine that little Hells Bay skiff would feel like a canoe with this swimming toward you.

As cold as it is, you can just pick em up by hand and move them out of the way. They won't strike

At first glance, one of those snakes looks unlike the others.

Ha, that video is so lame. It's like putting up a video of your dong and and saying "WORLD'S LARGEST *****" but giving absolutely no scale.

Had a little encounter today after duck hunting:

Rattling noise this morning when a hunter was taking a leak. Saw the snake and we decide to investigate after the hunt.

He was still there, stuck in an a hydraulic fluid bottle:


Unfortunately for him he was stuck and wasn't getting out any time soon. Took the opportunity to get a "selfie"


With several thousand dollar dogs frequenting the area and with his lack of mobility, and executive decision was made to terminate the snake. I could have relocated him but I also don't have a dog to be concerned with.

The bottom was cut open and he tried to slither through the top with a full belly.

I had to cut the container top off to remove the body. You can see the blue ring on the body.

Aw, beautiful big guy

But I love snakes, so I'm weird I guess.

I like snakes too but I was around 4 guys with stereotypical OB fear of snakes and they also have some really expensive trial dogs that frequent this area. Unfortunately, it was the right decision.

I'm curious... How would you safely free him in that scenario? Could it be done or was he eventually going to be a goner anyway? I don't handle poisonous snakes, and never been around anyone that does.

Ah. Thx. I couldn't figure out what that was. Only viewed on a mobile and enlarging just blurred image. Racking my brain on the other 3 to figure out what the heck it was. Lol

Completely neutral. It really didn't matter to me.

I could have picked up the container by the handle with a really, really long stick and carried him a ways off. Eventually he would eaither be eaten or get him self free.

We were with Vance Flowers (Mills County Game Warden) doing a youth hunt for these orphan boys from New York just outside of Goldthwaite on Saturday.

He was wearing snake boots. I asked him if he just preferred those boots or if he thought rattlers were a risk out there this time of year (I've never seen one in winter, but they're everywhere other times).

He just looked at me and laughed. I was rethinking my previous assumptions! Was your pic a recent event?
God's Peace,
Chuck

That's what I was thinking - he would have probably just been a meal for some other critter.

No, to me, the snake in the middle doesn't look quite as dead as the others

I have three snakes. I would feel the same about them dying as I would my cat or dog.

Course, I've been handling venomous and nonvenomous snakes for 25 years.

I have one snake that I've been handling for about 30 years that I could not go on without.
