I would start with some tall boots and some heavy-duty pants. What kind of snakes are we talking about?

I wear Danner Sharptail boots, been struck a few times by copperheads, once by a rattler, never got through the boot , also very comfortable to walk all day in.

I generally detect in creeks and streams with headphones. That makes it much less likely that I'll spot a snake. Since I'm mostly in water, I'm currently using Water/Snake-proof Muck Boots.
