Hey fellas,

I'm looking for places around the Brownwood area. Would like to stay within 30-40 miles, unless you have a known den, then I'd be willing to travel a little farther.

Thanks,
JD

por que?

What types of snakes are you lookin for? You lookin to take some photos?

Looking to harvest live rattlesnakes.

Oh, so you are COMPLETELY out of your mind. Welcome to the forum and good luck!

Put all them snakes in baskets and ship them to the Taliban

I don't think I can oblige but I have a question. Do you do this often?

Man your crazy be careful good luck and welcome to the forum.

Good 2 C another neighbor on here. My ranch is about 10-11 miles north of Richland Springs. Love catchin' those Friday night football games on 101.3

I wish you posted this 6 months ago, the lease I just got off of was rattle bug infested. We killed 36 in 6 months! They were every where. This was just south of midland

craigr- My wife agrees with you.
erniejs- that's a good idea.
Ryan84- this is my first year to really hunt them on purpose.

I have seen 4 so far on my place this year, have caught 2.

The first one was on MLK day in Jan. I was a little suprised by that one. I have seen all 4 at the same den. I'll post up pics of the 1st and 3rd ones.

1st one on MLK day.

Caught this one on Saturday.

And the dental check up. Good boy, no cavities.

jdw99 do you know anybody that buys rattlers. My cousin's husband has been going rattlesnake hunting the past couple of weekends and needs somewhere to sell the snakes he caught.

Last saturday he asked me to go with him but since I had to work I couldn't. He ended up catching 14 rattlers that day. Right now he has 16 rattlesnakes in in boat garage that he wants to sell.

I have a place in Coleman Tx you are more than welcome

He should be able to sell them at a rattlesnake roundup. There will be one in brownwood in march I think. Or there is a big one in sweetwater not sure when.

bentman....where are you located in Coleman?

I think a good pair of snake boots would be next on my list of purchases, but I'm just funny that way....

Ewwwww, he touched it. Do they make snake gloves?

between Shields & Fisk

The Sweetwater Rattlesnake Round up starts March 12th and they will start weighing the rattle bugs you caught at 7am that morning.

Man, I have not been snake hunting in years. When I attended college in Stephenville, I would go back home on the weekends and sometimes do some snake hunting. There was a place at I-20 and 281 South Of Miserable Wells that used to buy them. At one point in time around $8.00 a pound was the price. I could go to the bar every night on snake money!
