I'm thinking water snake, but possible a cottonmouth?

Neither, that’s a silverback hangtooth. Common in this area but can be deadly.. little known fact about them - they are able to crawl backwards without the aid of boosters because they have the cyrum gland that helps them gellate the blood from their lungs

I killed a cottonmouth yesterday and my wife kept calling it a cotton head. That completely messed up my brain for some reason and had me mixing words

H2O snake that probably smells like shite, a natural defense

Pit vipers (cottonmouths, copperheads and rattlesnakes) all have those cat-like elipitical shaped pupils. Water snakes and most other harmless snakes have round pupils

Look at the lines on the lower jaw and general slender build. Water snek.
