Seen a cottonmouth once in MS. dove hunting. It was 4' long, big around as a pepsi can and had its head shot off. And it was still a scary looking snake.
WISH I HAD MORE TIME TO TRAP!

Pelts don't look too good on those 3 skinny ones. Not really.Those hides are worth more than your cats or coyotes.

Hope your getting paid enough. I'm doing a beaver job in an area that gives me the chills in this heat. Sure gets the spidy senses into high gear. Packing heat this time of year takes on a whole new meaning. Summer time trapping sucks. That's way I get paid the money I do. Come on winter. Sarge

Wow, I've killed a lot of cottonmouths in our swamps but only one was 48 inches. That's a big snake. The bottom one looks a little different than the others. Be careful!

Scuba, new generation of beaver. Leaner, meaner and sharper teeth. New market for hides?????? A whole lot easier to skin and flesh. Sarge
