Tampa Bay Snook On Flats And Beaches!

As of lately the snook fishing in lower Tampa Bay has been nothing short of spectacular! {%image_id=5319%} Male snook in the 20-26 inch range have invaded the flats and are hungrier than a starved dog with two tapeworms. Look for moving water in areas with structure(oyster bars,rock piles) or pot holes,flip a sardine and it's on like "Donkey Kong"! {%image_id=5320%} Breeder size size females are laid up on the beach. They tend to feed early in the morning or late in the afternoon when it's not so dang hot out. Try free lining a pinfish or grunt in the break along the beach and you may end up with a trophy size snook. Make sure you handle these fat girls with a little T.L.C. when you let them go (they are in spawn). Remember a fatigued fish can mean a dead one. {%image_id=5321%}{%image_id=5322%} Have safe and quality day on the water. Capt. Sean
