Rattlesnake Hunting 2022. Follow John and friends as they head out to north central Pennsylvania to hunt for timber rattlesnakes! The guys stayed at the Stony Lick Lodge in Sinnemahoning and explored and hunted the surrounding mountains for rattlesnakes. Brendan tagged his first snake and the biggest snake John Nugent ever caught was released unharmed back in the wild. A great weekend in the endless mountains!

So when y’all keep a snake you have them mounted like a deer head? Not criticizing I’ve just never heard of such a thing. Enjoyed the video
