Atllaw,
Reminds of a time I was going fishing on Black Bayou in Louisiana and it was teal season in Louisiana and we were slowly motoring along inour boat heading for a favorite fishing spot just before daylight! We passed by this duckblind and noticed two guys easing their boat up under the blind. A loud yell came from the duckblind and the boat under the blind came shooting out halfway from under the blind and four letter expletives flying every where and " kaboom" aball of fire about 3-4 feet in lenght came belching out from one of the guys guns and a mass of weeds, sticks,etc went flying out the other side of the blind. We eased over to see what was happening. You guessed it a couple of cottonmouths had taken up residents in the duckblind! Needsly to say the snakes got a very fast and fatal eviction notice!!
