Is it just me, or are there more snakes than normal on Ky and Barkley. I saw more than I could count yesterday, all Juvenile cottonmouths (redish color). Did the floods have something to do with this? I had a few trying to get up on my transom, almost put my hand on one getting a jig out of brush - Yes I screamed like a girl. I have always seen a few out, and in spots they would be thick, but it seemed like everywhere I went down Barkley I would see several. I even saw a few fishing main lake ledges - I hardly ever see them out there. I may think twice about taking a dip this summer.
