Went out this morning about 7 to Mascoutah. Got 4 bass. 3 on crankbait and 1 on Terminator Spinnerbait. Lost one really nice bass, wife didnt think it was a fish until i brought it up. Had to be from 3 to 5 pounds. Didnt have it hooked with the crankbait well enough. Seen couple snakes too. Think they are water snakes. Head is little bit more lengthy than venomis snakes. Got a pic.

I don't know, sure looks like a cottonmouth to me. Congrats on the bass by the way.

I think it called a diamond back water snake I dont think we have a lot of cotton mouths in our area.
