As was mentioned, all the 'copperheads' that people see are actually 'juvenile cottonmouth/water moaccasin'. I have several videos that will show you what they look like.
Here's a picture of the same snake that I took while on a trail here in the forest.
And a juvenile Cottonmouth/Water Moccasin most often, mistakenly referred to as a Copperhead. Look at the color and also notice its yellow tail.
