awesome looking snakes gotta love the copperheads they look fairly placid too
Sometimes they are cool and ride the hook like a champion.
Other times they can be very flighty and jump all over the place.
They can also come up and 'bite* you on the hand that your tailing them with if they are very scared.
With copperheads and tigers i sometimes approach them slowly and just slide the hook under them and basicly lift the tail into my hand.Hook and tail.
No stress
From there i can just place it in the bag..
Dosnt always work though, and they can be super fast.

* By bite i just mean the head can touch your hand.
