I have no fear of snakes in the water. It's common on land for snakes to get trapped or stepped on, and are forced to bite. In water, they are free to escape, and do so very quickly. So I guess there is 99% less snake danger in the water.
NOW, having said that, you gave me a wonderful idea. People tend to ignore "No Trespassing" signs, and I'm afraid someone will drown in my pond. Well, I think a "Danger! Water Moccasins" sign would be 100% effective!
