NorCal Rattlesnake Hunter
Hi All... NorCal Rattlesnake hunter here, for PICS and VID... I am a true believer in respectful catch and release.
I am a long time member and contributor to another web site in CA... CalGuns... a firearms website. They use the same vBulletin site shell, so getting around here is already very familiar to me.
I make my home in Ukiah, CA and with the aid of my GF Miss Denise, we hunt the Cow Mountain BLM OHV in Mendocino and Lake Counties.
Here is a video and digital image of one rattler we visit every now and then... we named him 'Sylvester' - SLY for short... because when we first met him... he was a TUFF booger to catch.
I have to tell you, I cannot do this without Denise, she is my 360º eyes and ears when I'm in photography mode.
NOTE: We recently ordered Snake Guardz and a Pillstrum.
The following is a sampling of our passion.

Re: NorCal Rattlesnake Hunter
Cool video, I find it really interesting the way he flicks his tongue all the way up and down.

Oh... haha... I know, I try to get pics when he has it straight UP... but... man... he's TOO fast.
Anyway, that rattler is a Northern Pacific... he has a permanent home there where we found him about a month ago.
We stop and visit him every time we go snake hunting, if they's no people around... I don't want people to know where he is, they might hurt him
We measured him at 43" long w/o the rattle, and 11" around the girth... ohhh he's a BIG BOY
Thank you all, everybody for a fine welcome... I am not here to teach... I am here to LEARN...!
