Backcountry snook have been very aggressive. Its been some of the best I’ve seen in many years with over slot snook released almost every day. My clients have been ecstatic.

Great fishing with great clients. I have been blessed with both. Chazz and Chrissy were a delight. We fished 5 days. Both are great anglers and have fished all over the world. They caught dozens of redfish and snook plus some gator trout. Truly just a great fishing week. There have been sporadic shots a […] The post GREAT FISHING GREAT CLIENTS app...

Plenty Of Fish February Being that we had the warmest January on record since 1880. We've had plenty of fish to catch so far this February. Fish really like these moderate temperatures. Not too cold and not too hot. We've also been starting to see a few Tarpon start showing up which means Tarpon and Shark season will be here sooner than normal. Typ...

Snook redfish and speckled trout have been the targets this week. The tides were tough this week as they were weak but clients pulled some great days out of it. We had a couple good days of catch and release snook fishing because of the decent outgoing tides. We have been using 4 inch swimming […] The post SNOOK REDISH SPECKLED TROUT appeared firs...

The winter fishing is off the hook. We had our first real cold front come through a few days ago and dropped the water temps 10 degrees. Air temp on Tuesday was 38 dgrees in the morning so I postponed that days trip but this is what we were waiting for.

Incredible fishing this season. The New Year started off with a bang. We have been banging the redfish snook and seatrout. Its not just because we have had great weather. There have been challenging days with the wind but working with my clients and getting them to get the presentation just right has paid off. […] The post INCREDIBLE FISHING appea...

First redfish for this young man Tanner. There is nothing better than father and son trips. This young man is now hooked on the Ten Thousand Islands fishing experience. Love it! The redfish have been the predominant species this week. Because we have not had a real cold front the fishing has been in the […] The post FIRST REDFISH FOR TANNER appear...

Redfish dominate the bite in the Ten Thousand Islands. Marco Island and Goodland have been some of the best redfish fishing so far this year. Many slot fish in the 24 to 27 inch range have been eager to strike our offerings.

Just this week there have been 2 slams fishing the Ten Thousand Islands on the snookhookerfishing.com skiff. That is a snook a redfish and a speckled sea trout caught by one angler.

As usual fishing this time of year can be great. Lots of different species and good action. Lately the incoming tide has been best with good action with snook redfish trout snapper and jacks. I’ve been throwing my cast net in the mornings before my trips getting live pilchards which are currently along the beaches. … Naples Marco Island Fishing Re...
