I totally agree if we go underground we have already lost the battle. People really need to make an effort to hunt on private property. What I do not like about private property is that alot of them require reservations and that doesn't always work seeing as how most people like to "chase the storms". In all likelyhood even if you do have access to private property there will be times when you know you need to hunt elsewhere just to have a decent chance at seeing any snakes at all. I would rather see snakes and not collect than be wasting my time somewhere on private property. So one is likely going to end up hunting roads at some point but I think it is very important to plan a way to access private property for at least some portion of your trip. When conditions are decent you can hunt the private property as planned but if they are bad you can make side trips as needed.
One thing to think about is you can get your own 20 acres down by river rd for about $3,000 last time I checked. You will need a 4WD to access it but you will also have access to miles of dirt roads leading to your property. This might be worth it for some who are already spending $1,500 - 2,000 on each trip anyways.
