what frightens u

When I was a bow-fishing I was walking along a creek and saw a small black snake tail going into a tire in the creek. I love killing snakes so I was running down the bank fast and putting a judo point arrow on the bow. I threw rock at the tire then stuck a stick all around inside the tire but no snake came out. I even jumped on the tire until the water turned all muddy. Finally I jumped up and down on the tire until I saw black in the water. The biggest water moccasin I have ever seen picked the same bank I did. I was eye to eye with a well over six foot snake only a few feet away. I knew I was well in striking distance. I figured I was going to get bit and there was no way I would let a snake bite me and get away. So I drew my bow and the snake shot off into the tall grass. I had to change my drawers. I never chase a snake I did not get a clear view of and only use a gun for snakes!
