Snakes need to go if they're that big a neighborhood pond. People have pets. It's not like there's a lack of em anywhere. Didn't have to kill it ...more could've relocated it or had it relocated.
Ok it is a diamondback but it will still bite and getting bit by any snake hurts pretty bad and it was in a neighborhood pond and its still pretty big @whitebass_05
You killed it because it was eating catfish? You're on its land not vise versa. Plus it's not like its venomous and attacking you. and that's not even ...more a water moccasin its diamond back water snake.
