First Snook
 
1 Attachment(s)
Came over to Tampa for drydock and decided to make a few casts in the canal by the hotel caught my first snook and a whole lot of lady fish Attachment 49021
It's no Grand Isle but I can make it work

If there were snook in Louisiana waters in any numbers, I'd have a very different life. I'd have bypassed family and job and simply lived as close to the marsh or wherever they lived as humanly possible. And fished for them and trout and reds every possible waking moment. Just an awesome fish.

I completely agree with this

I wouldn't even fish for trout if we had snook in our waters! Them suckers are like a saltwater bass! Fun as hell to catch and I hear they are fantastic to eat!

Got one that pulled some drag today I think I'm hooked

Goooh 05-01-2013 08:14 PM

Never caught one and am getting the itch now! Nice fish!

Wish there was a better name for it though, Snook doesn't set well for some reason...

Dunno heard they are good but the season is closed right now

Garfish 05-02-2013 11:23 AM

Very nice!

Sightwindow 05-02-2013 12:23 PM

Wait til you hook one down in its mouth a little ways and he tries to shake it out on the surface. You think a trout head-shaking is cool! Then they actually keep fighting!

Yeah it's like fighting a crossbreed between a trout and a red with a little bit of bass thrown in there

If that doesn't sound like the ultimate game fish. Nothing does.
