hey kory. keep me posted on when that date will be if you would. i need to get a good snake hook and tongs for the summer, you have any good ideas? the internet is the only place i can think of.

ok its may, outdoor school is over! Hurray! I know you said maby this summer Mr.Roberts, but I work better when the sky is dimmed. Also I would kinda like to share with the class on what all we did if we did go. And the kind of equipment you use... would a golfstick without a head and some wire cloths hanger work? And what about the plastic tubes used to collect venom. I would like to get some venom and mix it with some blood (most likely mine) and show the class what it does.
Are there any spiting snakes in Arkansas? I doubt it, but if there are, I need to bring my sun glasses 
. So pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaeaeaeeaeaeaeaeaea *breath*eaeaeeeeeeeeeeeeese can you take me snake hunting this spring? I promis I won't complain, just tell me what I need to bring, and what not to bring, and I should be alright.
grimskraper, I'm far, far, from as knowledgeable with snakes as mr roberts, but I'd be willing to go on a hunt with you if he's too busy. I've never used tongs or anything like that but i've never handled anything dangerous...
You know grimskraper, you'll have to help my drum up a little interest in a northwest arkansas hunt some weekend... doesn't have to be an entire weekend, just a day trip...
At the moment I only have a few spots around here that I like to check, but I'm always looking for a little company. This one guy who is one of my better friends, is blind and he just worries a little that I'll bring him too close to something. I've chased a snake or two in his yard with him before, but he's not sure he wants to do that anymore. I really can't blame him.
Can it be a dry day? I know some snakes like moist climates, but don't some sun-bathe? I would cut off my other big toe to see that.
the little experience I have suggests any day is a good day to go herping. If conditions aren't quite right to find them out and about, they're bound to be hiding somewhere, so you start flipping things over...
This time of year, just about any kind of day *can* be good (which is different than saying it *WILL* be good...). 
I've had my share of surprise finds on days that were "too cold", "too hot", "too windy", etc.
I do think that people have this idea that it has to be 85F to find snakes. My most successful days come when the temp is about 65-75F.
