The end of my days fishing.

[SemperFiDawg]

If we ever get these things around here my days of hunting and fishing will be over with the first sighting. They should be outlawed and anyone caught with one should be fed to it.

I no'd better. If'n I had..I woodn't slept fer a week. Then only off an on for a year or so.

I can't think of anything that would stop me from hunting and fishing. This creature is just something else to chase!

Florida had a bounty on them. That's a lot of boots and belts right there.

Our ecosystem is to cold, those cold winter blasts we get would kill them without question. These things are surviving in the only area they possibly can in the US. Are they invasive and need to be taken care of? YES! but you have no fear of them living here unless they do some type of rapid evolution that allows it.

I would put an electric fence around the gunwales if we had those around here.

Just carry a shotgun with you and blast the things in half everytime you see one.
That's a pretty good start.

Pretty snake.

Makes me miss my Ball Python I use to have.
Still, if if came by me in the wild, I would have a nice pair of python skin boots.

"Just don't muck with it and it won't muck with you."
That was said by some dead guy who was always mucking with stuff.

Just carry a knife in each pocket. If he grabs you,calmly pull out your knife with whichever arm he doesn't have hold of and cut the jaw muscles. He will let you go.

 

[Dutch]

Jaw muscles won't be the issue...its the coils wrapped around crushing you to death.

If you get close enough for that snake to get hold of you, your fault...

Heck 99% of the people I know have been doing that with Rattlesnakes for eons and they are still here. Not a vote of confidence on this solution.

Right before he was suffocated and swallowed whole, and hopefully fully dead.

Hence the statement “ my hunting and fishing days will be over.

Not so with the eastern diamondback. Between indiscriminate killing and habitat loss, their population is way down. There`s talk of them going on the Endangered List.

As for those exotic snakes, they could be trouble for a lot of things.

I stopped a club member a few feet from him. Putting up deer stands(looking up). Could you see him going to you blind/stand in the dark.
