Those are the single species of snake that don't survive long in our ponds. Wife hate's the things, and they are pretty aggressive. Have had them try to get in the boat every time I fish one local lake.
I leave bullsnakes, garters, etc. alone, but those things get the lead sedative. GBH's are hell on 'em as well...I've seen them kill the things, but they don't seem to eat 'em unless they're small.
To each his own...
