Known for their aerial displays, sneaky tactics and powerful runs, snook are a favorite target among the elite four game fish in our shallow water flats (redfish, snook, tarpon and trout). A warm water resident, much like our tarpon, snook have begun to move into their familiar late spring haunts over the past several weeks such as the edges of islands, mangrove shorelines, docks and mouths of inlets. Even though most are caught during daylight hours, they are also nocturnal feeders and make a thrilling adversary to hunt after sunset. (See the picture below of the 18 pounders caught by Capt. Peter last night near Sebastian Inlet). By the way, we offer evening snook charters during the summer to those who have the stamina and adrenalin sufficient for the challenge of the snook.
