Supposedly found by Hillsdale Lake by Olathe? The e-mail says 97 lbs and 9 feet long...got to be a record for Kansas if it's true! I will try to attach it on the next post.

It may be 9' but I doubt it's any where close to 97lbs.

I agree. That scrawny guy would not be holding up 97lbs on the end of a stick like that.

Yep me too. A couple of years back I received an email of the same picture but that email said the snake was found in TX. That snake must really get around.

i got the same pic, only the email said it was poplar bluff, mo.
it's either fake, or a bad year for snakes.

That snake is real, it was caught in Fritch, Texas not too far from where I live.
