I agree, MacDaddy could be lurking and he sounds as if he knows he would be a trophy, and he has probably been caught and has to be released, I think Snook can live 20 years?
We take the intercoastal way in Central florida and can pop out into the ocean at Ponce Inlet. We have alot of channels that branch of the coastal way and thats where I found this little closed in 1/2 mile circular cove.
Some nice pompano were coming out of there as well.
I was trying to catch a redfish which is one of my favorites, and the Snook hit me instead under the mangrove bushes up against the shoreline. He took me out quite a way, and I really thought I had a bull red on the line.
Im glad I live 30 miles from the ocean but wish I had bought a home on the water with a dock....I could do that now, but the hassle factor of moving turns me off, just spent 1.5 years restoring the inside from the flood, and I over being a home owner for now. Got this place the way I like it finally.
S. Florida is Snook capital, and the further you go up the coast the more scarce the snook are to hook up. In Volusia County we can catch snook up until June, in some counties they stopped May 1.
How is shrimping down there? We are running out of time, this week is prob the last run, they are thick as carpets on outgoing tide but tonight they won't run until 2AM......I am thinking about it tho...
