re: Chased by cottonmouths (video)

We had an experience with one where I wouldn't say he chased us but he came straight to our headlight and we of course were there. My uncle, my cousin, father, and me and my brother were frogging one night in knee deep water wading. We had a Ruger 10/22 with us that wouldn't feed so it functioned as a single shot. We saw this snake about 10 feet away. He shot at it and missed and the snake came straight for his headlight. We were trying to quickly load the gun but was a massive fail and the snake went right to my uncle and he stomped it and held it under til the rest of us cleared out and he highstepped it out of there in hip boots. I'm sure it was the light but he did come to us.
