I think snook would be #1 on my hit list for Florida species. Everyone always seems to enjoy catching them. That jack looked like it was built for power too so I bet they are fun!
Yeah they're pretty cool, I think theyre basically the largemouth bass of the ocean. I really want to get a redfish, I've caught about 6 snook but never a redfish. Jacks are insane fighters, more so than hybrids or smallmouth IMO.
I’ve been in Florida my whole life and the one fish I have yet to land is the tarpon. I’ve hooked about 5 or so, never landed one but I can tell you they’re the most exciting hands down.
Snook are best bang for "buck" . Tarpon you need to be chill, just let em beat themselves cuz you won't. Reds are strong, like F 350 HD strong. Love swfl, every day of fishing I've had has been awesome.
Sort of. Not my first snook but that was the first snook I posted. I'm actually still holding on to the first snook video lol. By now it's over 2 years old, really need to get around to editing that haha
Nice man! I was just there last month. I was mostly at clam pass because that's where we stayed. I got a nice redfish in that big bay. A few snook too. How do u wade that muddy bottom though?
Very slowly lol. I swear I about lost my shoes every other step. Ive purchased new wading "shoes" recently tho that are basically 7mm neoprene socks that go over the ankle (w/ velcro straps), and they do really well in mud. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@EngineeringHooksets yeah, it was a grind for me to get one. I think around the mangroves in the big bay is the best chance. Having a kayak helps because it would be a pain to try to wade it. High tide, or right before or after is best time but you already know that.
Also, it has to be a lure because i tried cut bait at the bottom and I kept getting catfish. Maybe shiners or baitfish on a bobber will work but i had trouble catching baitfish. I think the paddletail swim baits or vudu shrimps is best for that area.
