Wish all outdoors people treated nature like Nick! Truly a good guy out there for the right reasons.
As someone with pet snakes, what you did is rare even for an outdoorsman. Good on ya! And with these rains we got today, you should have some good vids coming up if it was the same a little further up north!
You would be amazed how many outdoorsmen save snakes and we don't kill them. All animals have their place on this earth love them or hate them.
I know some of us do but many others subscribe to the "only good snake is a dead snake" thing. And for the population in general, that is the default thinking. They will go out of their way to kill them.
Agreed. I love snakes.
Snake owner myself…. I have always ben an advocate for snakes…. I try to educate people to not kill them…..
Tangly nasty is what a guy i hiked w called most 🐍. I feel the same but were both alway careful to make sure we just wemt around them. Usually when ya walk up on em they're hunting
The amount or care you have for the creatures you catch, and in this case find on the bank, always brings happiness to me. You respect nature, and it's so refreshing to see. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
He literally catches fish and cuts them up in pieces..... that's respect for nature ? Strange
@@440-fishermandrock8 If you watched enough of his videos to see him do that, you know that he targets invasive or fast breeding bait fish. He is not being malicious, he just uses the resources that are at hand. You can still take harvest from nature and still respect it.
BUDDY, lots of good stuff in this video. Catching fish, saving a snake, and then bringing the net out so no more animals get caught in it. All this and more is why I’ve been a fan of 618 Fishing, thanks again for sharing the awesomeness. 🎣🐟🎥💯👍
Good on you for saving that snake.... even if it might have been a cottonmouth. Its their world too and they have a right to exist. Also good on you for picking up trash and removing it from potentially hurting other animals. I would definitely like to see another go at both the spill way and maybe even a kayak trip on the main lake? Not sure how easy that would be but it sure looked nice. I always enjoy the adventures to spillways and the creeks that they feed. Another interesting video!
Always love to see anglers helping animals in distress. Even when its a snake! Great job Nick. Your video production is top notch!
That spillway is a good find, the sheer number of bait fish in there is a amazing. Would love to see you back there and maybe take a wander down the creek and see what you can find. Fantastic video as always! Kia Ora from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Yeah. Your micro fishing vids have always been my favorite. Keep up the good work 👏

We’ve had a historic lack of rain in Dallas. 67 days without rain so far. That’s the second longest streak on record. Im jealous of your rain.
Definitely not a water moccasin/cottonmouth. Just a water snake and a small one at that. They can be evil tempered though and give you a pretty good bite. Glad you could help it out. Keep up the good work.
I've found water snakes and rat snakes to be very pugnacious. My neighbors call me to remove the latter, they are afraid of them. They bite, but haven't much force (though lots of bacteria, I'm told.)
What a brilliant film ! Full of interesting fish and a rescue snake section ! Thanks so much for sharing nick !
Thank You! That was a water snake. They will bite but harmless. RESPECT for doing that.
It was great that the snake was OK, and you took the time to do the right thing . I'm sure you will be blessed.
editing is top notch! legit on a whole different level than anything else on KZhead! thanks bro
This episode reminded me to old school "Microfishing". Thanks for the content Nick!! :)
Well done for rescuing the snake dude, so many people wouldn't have bothered..KUDOS!
I do believe you are correct about the snake, from the little I could see of him I think he was a common water snake. The cotton mouth is a bit more chunky and very aggressive. You are a good man for saving the snake and cleaning up the netting.
Cottonmouths are actually not aggressive at all, it’s a myth. They will defend themselves but they will never chase after someone.
Nice to see you fising at the lake and you should go back there 👍
So much joy catching fish. Me too Nick, it's just the best thing!
The part with the snake brought back a memory of exact same encounter I had while fishing in a lake near home. I had been fishing a while when I noticed as commotion in the water several yards to my right. Upon investigation I realized it was a water snake tangled IRONICALLY in the same type of mesh that you showed in the video. I believe it is used to keep the branches of shrubs together whir moving them. Unfortunately, it acts like a GILL NET to a snake, as their scales prevent them from backing out. I had to CUT it off to free him.
Great job saving that snake! I am sure he was appreciative and that lunge at you was just an attempt to give you a fist bump - snake style!!!! Awesome video...always excellent!! Mike 🇨🇦 🍁 👍
lots of respect for what you did man great job.
Your fishing adventure's are so entertaining to watch Nick. Again I just wish they lasted longer I'd watch every second.
Nick,I not only like to watch your adventures but also like to read the comments. Your viewers leave some of the most constantly positive posts.it flows your peaceful nature. Thanks and tight lines everyone
Seems likely it was some variety of banded water snake. Great job rescuing it! Another great video.
Definitely go back. Cool spot. Glad you were able to save that snake.
Thank you for the care you show the environment. Nice work!
I think this is the first time I have seen you fish in a lake, excluding the pond of giants. I like lake fishing and would like to see more.
Just found your channel! We started fishing as a family a couple of years ago and we appreciate your videos and it's so great to show our kids (8 and 10) your enthusiasm for fishing! We were camping in Nauvoo, IL a few months ago and fished Horton Lake, sooo many water snakes! I generally steer away from them but the kids seem unfazed. Caught a bunch of bluegills with hot dogs and a lady caught a 5 pound bass, it was great. BUT for the snakes!!😖 Keep up the great work with the videos!
Making the herpetology community proud man. It's rare to see a fisherman who doesn't think all snakes are the spawn of Satan.👍
Love the vids and great job on helping the stuck snake!
Always love watching 618 fishing... And a good fishermen keep up man
That spillway looked good with that rain!! Wish I was there!!!! 😀
I really salute you my brother 👍 really care about wild animals even though they are very venomous animals
HEY THAT'S WASHINGTON COUNTY!! I LOVE THAT LAKE!! Has some great catfishing there. If you go to the edge by the tree and throw it towards the creek ahead of you, you will probably get something. Good luck!
As a reptile enthusiast I really appreciate you at least being able to free one of them snakes.
Thanks for taking me fishing again, loved every minute of it.
You made me laugh when the snake jumped at you and that sound you made, was too funny :D Enjoy your fishing adventures. Fish on...
Noticed the snake didn't get a "See you later buddy".... Rock on Nick
Awesome job freeing that snake! And your search before you googled the snake! 😂😂. Love your videos!
9:50 lol, rough day . . . great work with the snake, well done that man
Great job, Nick! I love how you saved that poor snake. Being somewhat of a reptile/invertebrate guy myself (I keep snakes, scorpions, tarantulas, crabs, shrimp and a bearded dragon as pets), I can definitely say that you did well. It's always good to treat any unknown species as if they are venomous. Nice to know too that at least some people over there in the US don't kill each and every snake they see. They are such misunderstood creatures.
Northern Water Snake and not a Cottonmouth. Good on you for saving it! Cheers to you sir
Great video Nick! I don't mind seeing all the Sunfish (Bluegill & Crappie) you caught. Course don't mind seeing the other large catches you get, like Bass, Gar & Catfish. Was REALLY sweet seeing you fish by off that wood pier in the lake. Was a nice change. Too bad fishing there didn't work. About the Snake Nick. I've owned decent number of snakes. I THINK they may be a "Corn Snake". Colors look about right. Not venomous, fairly common and known to be ill tempered. Not sure you ever stopped by our fishing channel, but in one of our older videos I put up a video of my mildly venomous Snake biting me and putting me into the hospital. Nearly took my hand, then arm then nearly my life. All on video. Feel free to check it out if you've the time. Outside of that glad you had a sweet fishing trip, in California fishing just started picking up maybe 2 months ago. Our last trip... Striper hunting. Heh Tight lines Nick! Ken & Lea
Oh wow glad you’re alright! Thanks for watching!
@@618Fishing Yeah I'm fine... was a CLOSE call. Even the hospital had to call the CDC to figure out what to do. They had little experience with venomous snake bites. So still enough left in me to SET HOOK on my next fishing trip. FISH ON Nick!
Yes I think you should go back there, awesome video Nick 👍
This is one of my favorite places to fish I’ve fished here and cought some good catfish! Best fishing channel this guys great!
Nice video Nick but I'll have to say the highlight for me was the outtake at the very end! That lil shriek had me. Another part of your videos that keep me until the very end. your blooper outtakes! Good stuff bro.
Another great video Nick, keep on fishing brother!
Amazing!!! 👍👏👏 Thank you for sharing 🐟
It's been so dry. I get a happy feeling seeing the rain.
You're a true legend mate well done on the fish and saving that snake 👍🏼
Way to save that danger noodle Nick, thank you for sharing!
The best fishing channel on KZhead.
I love the funny baits you use. Koolaid soaked pork is my favorite.
This is probably the best video I've ever seen kudos to you brother keep fishing wish I could fish with you
Thanks again for sharing another great fishing journey taking place on Nickday!
Great video baby! I won't tell Renna you snatched her corn dogs!! 😂😂😘😘
😂😂 I Appreciate it baby thank you 😂
Love your KZhead channel Blessings Ohhhhh And love your music What a beautiful life
Ty for the video, a most excellent spot for fishing. Rain or shine we can always count on Nick to put out a good video.
Another great one sir. Thank you for all the fun and excitement. Thank you for many awesome future fishing adventures for my daughter and I, things are moving along well. You are definitely One of the most kind people I know of, and you obviously have great respect and care for nature. Bummer about your phone.
Nick, I hope you know what a great human you are. Thank you for sharing

That's cool that you also helped , not only fish 🐟 ,but snake's as well , not everybody would do that !!!!!!! Cool !!!!!!!!!!
you make me want to go fishing NOW!.. Great quality😁😁😁😁😁
Truly enjoy your fishing videos, good quality content
Awesome rescue on that water snake! 😀❤
Heck yeah!! Fish on!
Nick, that was a Northern watersnake, Nerodia sipedon, just like you said. Awesome job.
I enjoy the slow mo shots of rods and water running. Good stuff as always. Nice save on the snake.
Love your videos. Really impressive to see you rescue that snake. It was a northern water snake. A non-venomous species.
Oh! Also! That dock and surrounding bush has a good amount of shad around it typically if you throw net. I caught a massive one there in the past 😂
Heyyyy Nick! Enjoyed the content as usual 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
Definitely would like to see more from that spillway, even if it’s just ultralight fishing. Love your videos
Definitely do another video at that spillway 😀🤙
Stunning visual and fun to watch bro, keep it up!
the "Snake" was LUCKY it was YOU i would not messed w him! good fishing friend hit this spot again
Great video, yes, please go back to the spillway. There has to be big fish in there.
The way the video started was pretty good. I've had some fine days catching bluegill after bluegill
Keep doing what you do i like your style of fishing a great adventure fishing.
funny whar snake. i didnt see the snake until it was ro late. great vlog brother
U r a stand up dude for that snake rescue. Also I must say that your skills are next level, fishing, filming, editing and all around master of your domain. Keep up the good work. Respect.
9:21 "how to catch fish real real good" LOL
Love the drone shots makes the video a lot better
Good work brother!
Good job there Nick, You are one of the good guys
It's always been my experience that when there are ton of small fish swimming all around there aren't too many big ones that would be feeding on them and keeping their numbers down. Ppl. take all the big predators and then the small seem to take over.
Looked like a common water snake. Good job saving him!
had many trips like this one. Still a lot of FUN
Not many ppl will take the time to save a snake.. respect brother👌
Good job Nick...
your the best Nick! Keep'em comin'!!
Nice Vid, Nick. Thanks!
Beautiful area..
Your "The Man" 618!!🦈🐳
You’re the best Nick,🙏🏼thank you for saving the snake
