Glad nobody got bit. We used to go houseboating on Dale Hollow Lake every summer and would kill copperheads on the rocks in front of the boat. Glad none ever found it onboard! My Dad was deathly afraid of snakes since being bitten when he was a kid and no telling what would have happened on the boat!
