I hate em, one time fishing down in Louisiana with my good bud we were out in the lake in his john boat. Every ten or fifteen minutes we would have a what I call a water moccasin swim by on the water looking like they were sitting on top of the water just like that snake in the pic. , You would think they would see these big guys on a boat and beat feet, but no, they would come right for the boat and shimmy right up like a monkey on a tree and we would be doing a dance with the paddle to get them out of the boat.
While we were coming back across the lake a storm came up out of no where and turned the lake into giant wash machine and we were in a flat bottom john boat 14 feet long so we made for closest shore. As we got in along the shore there were Cyprus trees with these knees sticking out and my bud said grab them and pull us in cause we could not motor in due to the depth.
I reached down to grab the first knee I saw and just as I did four or five white mouths opened up and came up out of the knee like they were shot out of a gun.
Did not know those knees were hollow inside like a big cup.
Drank a lot of Jack that night at the Alligator Bayou Bar
