I don’t mind those that I know are good snakes but I know I can scream like a girl and run faster than anyone thinks I can when a bad one gets aggressive with me. That hasn’t happened in a long time. I generally carry a short barreled .22 revolver with CCI shot shells in the first chamber or three. Very effective when needed. I also don’t walk around fish much anymore, but not all wildlife has 4 legs either.
