Thanks for your thoughts. I've read that venomous snakes swim with most of their body ON the water and non venomous snakes will swim with just their head out of the water. Everything that I saw today was with most of their body on TOP of the water.

I also saw about a 4 foot long and fat bodied one that was lying on a pallet and then shot into the water when I was close. It was probably as thick as my wrist. Obviously didnt get a pic, but it was definitely thicker than the other ones that I was able to get a video/pic of.
