Yes that's the east fork does flow threw the johnson shut in park. I miss spoke even though I have fish a lot of the area my snake encounter was on the west fork. Sorry about that. West fork is in the centerville area.

I think this was a black ratsnake. It was a bit different though compared to all other black ratsnakes I have seen.

Looks like a blue racer. But the cobra pose is a lot like a black rat chicken snake. Hard to tell from the pic. If his belly was barred or patterned, I would say black rat. But if it was all the same color as the neck exposed, I would say blue racer or whatever the scientific name is for them.
