A fishin' story

I went fishing this morning but after a short time I ran out of worms.
Then I saw a water moccasin with a frog in his mouth. Frogs are good bass bait.

Knowing the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in his mouth I
grabbed him right behind the head, took the frog, and put it in my bait bucket.

Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting
bit. So, I grabbed my bottle of Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey
in its mouth. His eyes rolled back, he went limp. I released him into the
lake without incident and carried on fishing using the frog.

A little later, I felt a nudge on my foot. There was that same snake with
two frogs in his mouth.
