I was bit by a black rat snake one time that I was holding. It scared the day lights out of me (amoung other things). When the snake saw that it couldn't swallow me, it spit me out (let go) and that was the end of it.[/QB]
I thought you was going to say the snake crawled away and nearly died.
Never been bitten by a water snake, and I don't want to. Those fish-catching teeth make me very cautious. I've been tagged many times by snakes with shorter teeth. They bleed like crazy and heal up super quick. Something is going on there with the quick healing.
