Re: Ya'll won't believe... (cajunsmitty)

Re: Ya'll won't believe... (barchief)
The eyes are on the side of his head, not the top. Its 100% a cottonmouth.

Cottonmouth has solid white inside their mouths,that is a banded water snake.They can and will mimick cottonmouths by making their heads in that diamond shape,but like Cory said a pic of the eye would really tell you.

Either way, getting your hand close enough to grab it with jumper cables = grown ass man. I woulda just beat the s&^% out of it.

I agree with Bo...that is 100% a Cottonmouth. A banded water snake can't widened his head that much. With a head like that, there's no need to see his eyes.

Re: Ya'll won't believe... (timmaahh12)
Oh it's a cottonmouth alright, I think it crawled into my boat at Cannons this morning when I tied up next to the long wharf, a lot of tall grass next to it. I think it had just eaten a mouse right before cause if you look to the left of the battery clamp there's a bump. If you look to the right you'll notice his back is broken, that would be where the paddle held him so I could grab him with the clamp. That sucker stuck his head out when I was slowing down to fish. He was under my passenger seat.
