Fishing at work

[BPLuvr]

Most days on lunch break me and two other guys go out fishing. The first thing I always do is head back to a Dam since we often see snakes sunning themselves on the rocks. Today on the way there I stumbled across a snake. I called one of the guys to check it out. When I walked closer to get a better photo with my phone I see one (didn't know there was TWO snakes) head off into the weeds. This one just stayed there not afraid. I wanted to get it off the grass since the third guy likes to kill snakes. So I tapped near it with the tip of my fishing pole and nothing it just sat there. I proceeded to poke it a bit to try and shoo it away and still nothing. Last try was to tap it on top of the head figured it would get frustrated and leave but still nothing! It was alive and head moved a little. So I left it and me and another guy walked up to the dam and found no other snakes so we walked back. It still sat there not moving. We went on about fishing then came guy #3 (the snake killer). So I walked with him towards the dam to make sure he wouldn't kill it. It must have sensed him cause it had finally decided to slither away.

Yesssss! to that, lol! And nice save keeping the snake alive; wonder if that guy emits some kind of reptile repellant, lol! Either way, good job keeping him from killing it.
