Today I catch my first ever Snook! Kayak fishing Anna Maria island Florida, we launched at the public boat ramp and made our way to the canals and docks with live Shrimp from Annie’s Bait and Tackle in Bradenton, Florida. We also threw some artificial swimbaits by Salt Native and CatchCo and caught many new species to show off on the channel during this outing 🎣
If you want to check out our kayaks, here is the link bit.ly/sportsm... the AutoPilot 120 model I’m using is feature rich and allows you to just focus on fishing with a trolling motor equipped with spotlock for those windy days. This isn’t a sponsored post, I just love the kayak.

Where exactly did you launch from?

@logangow1640 3 года назад

Good al Anna Maria Island, those are my old stomping grounds back before I moved to Tennessee, while you're down there you outta check out Myakka River State park and fish the Upper Myakka lake, there's some real nice large mouth bass out there

That yak is freakin SIICK!! Them Snook are for sure on my bucket list! Along with tarpon! Exciting video man! Appreciate ya! BABAAM!!

@mattbugg4568 3 года назад

While you caught a snook there is probably close to 50 species of fish around that island. Also there is miles and miles of intercoastal waterways all down that coast. From pine Island south to the keys. Finding out about 4-5 species, exact fishing methods for each, structure they hang out in, what to look for on your fish finder, and what baits to use will maximize your day on the water. The shrimp is absolutely a go to for snook but they eat greenbacks and mullet and lady fish and almost anything they can ambush from rocks points docks etc. However you are traveling to where your fishing over alot of other fish, like grass flats you can target reds, holes you can target trout, oyster beds you can target sheep head, beaches you can hit Spanish, tarpon, pampano. under bridges whiting and sheep head, drops red snapper. Etc. There is tons of water people just pass over when they target one fish that holds other fish they would love to catch also. As a fisherman if your just targeting that one fish thats great. But if your really getting into an area set up your fishing before you go get a underwater structure map and depth chart. And set up a direction of travel and then see what structures and fish to target over each part of the path. Because you can spend your whole life fishing in that area. As I have been on that island 1000s of times in my life and realized I was just dumb lucking it fishing because It just takes years for the learning process.

@WestinSmith 3 года назад

Thanks Gerald 👊🏼 we had an awesome time trying to catch new species out there.

@russdennis7026 3 года назад

Great video brother. May I suggest you learn how to tie the Alberto knot for your leader connections. Easy to tie and goes through the guides much better than the double uni. Try it out.

@lumpiestofcoles3724 3 года назад

Awesome video Westin this was different and very enjoyable honestly!!! Switched it up from fresh to salt that’s always cool to see in my opinion all the ocean species you can catch just on bass gear not far out at all

@WestinSmith 3 года назад

Thank you! Got lucky with so many new species out there this visit. Learned a lot for sure

Goin next week ! Bump the shrimp or plastic shrimp jigs across the bottom . It’s flounder or fluke season . U have to give them a minute to eat ur bait to set the hook cause of their mouths ...

@rolandmcclendon1394 3 года назад

Westinghouse is snook fishing better than fishing for bass and should I try

@WestinSmith 3 года назад

Haha you would enjoy it. The initial fight is a lot of fun and you can catch some true giants. I enjoyed it a lot, would be fun to catch them on artificial at some point as well

Hey Westin , I think my dads planning a trip to come to Texas and I wanted to ask if u knew some lakes in Austin that had good fishing. Keep up the fire 🔥 Vida as always

@WestinSmith 3 года назад

They seem to all have large fish and I would hit all areas, lake Austin by boat, ladybird by bank or kayak, you’ll get on em

@willrodriguez1032 3 года назад

I've been thinking of getting a saltwater setup for catching striper up her in New England. Any suggestions?

@WestinSmith 3 года назад

I would reach out to Fishing With Becca cause that’s her jam!!! I would say a 4000 size reel, and main line is where I’m not too sure what’s best but would assume 50lb braid with how big those things can get, and something like a 20lb Fluoro leader. I’m sure for most all of them, something like 30lb mainline to 15 or 20lb leader is fine, but when you get the big ones on the hook I’d be worried

@beardosd 3 года назад

@@WestinSmith thanks bud. Definitely helpful! Sometimes I work by the coast and figured I give inshore a try.

@felipegomez3454 3 года назад

Bruh set the hook lol so gentle with it.

@WestinSmith 3 года назад

I was gold by everyone out there not to set the hook with the circle hooks

@fosterlangholz8782 3 года назад

@@WestinSmith ya with circle hooks dont set it at all just reel into it

@dylantaylor3384 3 года назад

Next time you go saltwater fishing you should go weightless because the bigger snook and trout are smarter and won’t eat if it sinks straight to the bottom

@WestinSmith 3 года назад

Yes! Check out the other video we posted of the Tampa Slam 🙌🏼 weightless
