Walked up on this guy today. Bad enough in the spring, but do not want to think about them in December.

I work for the county where I live. We have been pulling water from the pools and have gotten 2 snakes out in the last week. One was a small ring neck the other was a copperhead. Pretty wild. And it was in the upper 20's here when we found them in the water.

I don't think any have been seen east of the TN River yet, correct?
I think there's the possibility of seeing a cottonmouth along the Cumberland River. However, I don't buy for a second all the stories from people who say the Harpeth River is full of cottonmouths. They're just seeing common water snakes. I've been on the Harpeth quite a bit and never seen one.

Now KY Lake/TN River? Loads of them.

Bryan, when I was stationed at Fort Campbell in the late 1980s, I did a lot of fishing on the river at Dover. There were several places there that I never went into without seeing at least one cottonmouth, especially in midsummer.
