One of my my buddies found him duck hunting
Friend just sent that pic to me also. I've seen them in the cold but not on ice.

Well that's something you don't see often if at all.......
Don't want to see it up close and personal either.......
I found a small live snake in my backyard a couple years ago in January
You could probably pick him up by the tail and beat him against a tree. I wouldn't try it, but it surely can't move much if any when it's in the 20's.
Hopefully they took care of that nasty beast....
I wouldn’t have got that close to find out I would have sent him to the moon! In pieces of course!
NEVER seen one on ice!

The ones in Missouri must be wimps, they hibernate. You guys have some tough cotton mouths.

That would make a good head on shot.
As Troy would say.Choot Him.
I saw a video on Facebook yesterday of what appeared to be a snake swimming under ice. Always thought they hibernated.
UGH!
I killed one that size a few years ago while duck hunting on Redstone. (Looks almost like the same area going into area 25!) I almost stepped on him, all coiled up with head back ready to hit. My dog had just bounce thru that area and probably alerted that snake by the time I stepped thru. It was in December but not quiet this cold.
Cool! He can have that chunk of ice.
The last time i went it was in the low 40s and i saw one laying on rocks in the sun.after it gets out of the high 60s ive never thought anything about them till now

BANG!!!!!
Gonna throw the Flag on this one , if you look close the chin of the snake seems to be on the ground/ice maybe even propped up to keep its mouth open .If he was an active snake that head would not be that low to the ground. Snakes will come out to sun beside their den in the winter if the air temp warms them but that has to be above 40° at best and sometimes other events make them move such as water flooding them oranimals digging them up. This one if for real might have denned in the wrong place and the lengthy cold spell made him look for a warmer den BUT, as long as its been this cold he would be seriously sluggish unless he was hibernating next to Browns ferry discharge water. Might be a new kind of radioactive snake!!!
There's also a video on facebook of the snake it is 100% alive and moving just very slow it opens its mouth and you can even see its fangs
Sorry bud. This ones fer real seem a video of him. Was filmed five miles from my house by my music directer which I fish with. Very much alive. But if you need video. Pm your number. I'll text it over
Too bad we can’t fish here..

Ouch. Hope he’s OKQuote:

You would be surprised how easy going a rattlesnake is you really got to make them bite you.
