Happy Herping,

Any time you catch a snake it will be just as exciting. I hope you let the critter go free..

Yes I did let the little guy go. I can't keep venomous and it was in a very old patch of woods. I even found an Plains Ratsnake, which have become quite rare lately. I even let that go, though if it was a more common species like a Texas Rat I might have kept it. The copper was really the highlight though. Great find and fun to catch.
