Real Yorkies are true terriers. Mine has scraped with raccoons twice his size, he’s a menace to squirrels, and I’ve seen him thrash a huge rat to death in mere seconds. Awesome little dogs.

Booga, my offer stands to find any cottonmouths around your pond if you’re within an hour or two of Folsom. Found 7 cottons on my creek today and caught a few.

Sorry, didn't mean to ignore you earlier just a lot going on. Unfortunately, I'm just south of Birmingham so not in your range.

I have followed your advice and I've gone "hunting" a few times since the bite. It's all very surreal, I was fishing with my 9 year old daughter when it happened. I even told her to be on the lookout since it was warm, the snakes would be out sunning.

I follow all your snake threads on the OB, they have not only been educational but have made me respect snakes as animals. I have no intention of catching it and holding it, I understand it was defense for the snake. I still have to look out for my kids and pups and I'm in scorched earth mode.

Do you pin them when you catch them? That head hold looks like you would almost have to. A cottonmouth has always looked more menacing to me than most any other snake. They just look pissy with an attitude to match.
