Pickwick Lake is in Middle TN. Didn't know they were in any part of the Tennessee River watershed. I wonder what has kept them from migrating further upstream?

It dams the Tennessee River, how could it not be?

Must have escaped from the zoo or private collector, since they are not indigenous to TN.

Well I'm no rattle snake expert but the patterns matched from the photo's I saw on Wikipedia, so I gave up the search there. If the little SOB would have been much bigger I think I'd have had to introduce him to Ms. Winchester 12ga but as it was I goterdun with a stick laying in the carport.
