Title: Snakes are out...
Post by: Turkeykiller12 on March 13, 2012, 09:20:06 PM
Good Luck to any team members that are getting to go hunt in either MS or AL this week. Ya'll be careful and watch out for snakes. I went and scouted a piece of land yesterday and came up on about a 3ft long king snake laying out. I figure if he's out those venomous snakes are also. Again, Good luck and Becareful to my team mates givin' it a try this week! :smiley-patriotic-flagwaver-an

Good call.  With the temps being in the mid 70s here Im sure they are starting to make their way out.

weatherman I listen to out of Birmingham said it may get up to 84 around these parts about friday. Looks like summer time weather for a while, thats alright maybe that will keep those tornadoes away.

Will keep my eyes peeled in Ms.  Good Luck Bustabeak.  Hopefully we can get a few birds on the board early, and then often.  Bustabeak, the travel call is on its way to you!

The only good one is a dead one. I killed a copper head last season, and it's going to be hot tomorrow. When I set up in the dark I'm always worried about sitting in ants or on a snake.

Davisd9 and I ran across a small copperhead Thursday. It was laying in a grown up road with his mouth open, just waiting on me to get a little closer. I jumped back and keep an eye on it while Donald went to find a suitable beating implament. A few minutes later we were in the birds.

"A suitable beating implament" lol I like that. Im hoping I don't run across anymore snakes than the one I seen the other day.

That's one good thing about Illinois where I live don't have to worry about snakes. Glad you were able to take care of him. :z-guntootsmiley:
