I went fishing this morning but after a short time I
ran out of worms. Then I saw a cottonmouth with
a frog in his mouth. Frogs are good bass bait.
Knowing the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in
his mouth I grabbed him right behind the head, took
the frog, and put it in my bait bucket.
Now the dilemma was how to release the snake
without getting bit. So, I grabbed my bottle of Jack
Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth.
His eyes rolled back, he went limp. I released him
into the lake without incident and carried on
fishing using the frog.
A little later, I felt a nudge on my foot. There was that
same snake with two frogs in his mouth.
