Had a "wow" moment yesterday

[RascalArms]

I used to be a doubter of everything I heard like this. But then one weekend I went scuba diving at the base of the Lake Conroe dam. I saw several catfish as big as a Volkswagen bug. And then I was water skiing later that day and ran right into a nest of water moccasins. There were about 150 of them. I got bit 200 times but a quick thinking vocational nurse cut an "X" through every bite and sucked the poison out before it got to my heart.

So I guess you can say that I take these internet stories pretty seriously now!

Almost the EXACT same thing happened to me except the catfish I saw were the size of a Volkswagen Jetta. It was probably more recent.

Yes.

With that many bites I bet he had (got?) to suck on some good places!

[Rack Ranch]

At least he was just a guy and not your friend.

Here is a big snake...

It's like when people tell you that when hogs "go feral" they suddenly bristle up and grow long, razor-sharp tusks.

Had a guy point-blank tell me I didn't know what I was talking about when I told him a pig's skull and bone structure don't change when it's released into the wild.

Haha get his to look at the bottom front teeth next time. If the teeth are straight and long then it’s a wild feral pig, if it’s got short crooked teeth then it’s got a lot of domestic influence in it.

They scored it at 259"

[lovetohunt]

Did you tell him that it's not legal to smoke that stuff here.

[RiverRat1]

They scored it at 259"

Was he trespassing at night?

[flywise]

I typically just say...thats a big one.

Holy cow, I remember hearing the catfish and snake stories told exactly the same as a kid!

How about the alligator picture with the fawn in it's mouth that was supposed to be in every lake, pond, and stream, in every state of the union. I saw an article that added up it's air miles and it rivaled Santa Clause......

Im a bit embarassed to admit that as a kid when we would ski conroe I always kept my eyes peeled for the snakes!
