Weird Snake at Iowa River?
Ok, so we were fishing under a dam right outside of Steamboat Rock, Iowa (Hardin County). and we were on a platform under the dam there and some strange snake tried to come on it...the current kept it away but then it went under the platform...the weirdest part was it was about a 2 ft. snake with a small head but it had a 6" Catfish in its mouth...It was dark brown with tan spots and big fangs...(I've seen many Bull Snakes before, it wasn't a bull snake trust me)

but the only thing is those snakes are not found in water, they are found near barns and such
the next snake is the Copperhead or "Cottonmouth"

They are found near rivers and ponds and woulde certainly have the venom to kill the fish. They are really dangerous so yeah distance is good (they are endangered so killing them could land you a spot in jail :S) and you said your snake had a small head, the copperhead most certainly does not its head is much wider than its neck
and the next one is the common Iowa water snake
