Info from Licensor: "In this video, we were wade fishing for smallmouth bass in the Saline River. We love catching and handling all creatures we can get our hands on, especially snakes, and we encounter many snakes on our daily adventures. On this day we came across many snakes, but the Diamondback Water snake featured in the video stood out to us because it was pretty large. Jessica proceeded to catch the snake and handle it, and I captured the video. We make a lot of snake catching and handling videos, so this was just a normal thing for us. The snake was not very impressed with being handled and displayed aggressive behavior by striking at Jessica. Jessica did not get bit in this video, unlike some others. She has been working on getting bit less this year!"
