John, don't get me started!  I've been tying some ants lately.  Freaking deadly buggers.....

In all the seasons spent tramping the South Edisto, the backwaters of Florida, craggy mountains of California and Arizona, I never once needed to shoot a snake.
There have been a few times, however, that I wanted to defend myself against TWO LEGGED reptiles.
Wish I had the money for one of those Taurus Judge's.

Thanks Bill I thought it was something like that but didn't know they made it in larger calibers.

 I hand load those for .38 spl and .44 spl/mag. I have never been too impressed with them. I have killed snakes with them but you need to be VERY close. The rifling in the barrel causes the shot to spread out very fast after it leaves the barrel (that's why you need to be so close). I have since bought a Taurus Judge in .45/410. It too has a rifled barrel, but does a MUCH BETTER job of dispatching snakes. (That's my fishing gun now) loaded with two .410 shells for snakes and three .45 Colt rounds in case I meet up with a Hog or Coyote etc.......It deals me "Great Comfort" when fishing a river or pond way back in the woods......

Just my $.02.............Don in SC

hey bill;; usually I find those rat shot shells in a 22 caliber;; at close range;; it does a descent enough job I guess.  I always thought those things were for those that cant hit anything

Dick, the snake shot he is talking about is usually .38 or 9mm shells meant to pack a real punch.  Bird shot is not effective on a rattlesnake or moccasin.

Same thing , but I never had a bird try to get in my tube.

Don't know anything about snake shot is that like bird shot.

Allen,
SC is pretty much there already. Transporting aquatic creatures from one BOW to another is pretty much verboten, as far as I know.
Certainly, dumping left over bait in the waters is specifically addressed.
