Fishing for keeper Snook in the St Lucie River

Fishing for keeper Snook in the St Lucie River. Snook fishing has been heating up and my goal was to catch a slot fish. The previous trip I lander a perfect 31" Snook, so I knew I had a good shot at another. Using light tackle with a star stellar light rod, Daiwa BG4000, and Yozuri 30 lb flourocarbon leader I pitch live Pilchards at walls and bridge pilings. After catching several small Snook and Jacks I changed tactics to a knocker rig and put a large Threadfin Herring under a bridge piling. I landed a nice 30" slot to achieve my goal for the day.

Thanks for the support Captain!!

That was a nice 30 inch snook to keep. Under that bridge seems to hold some bigger fish. Well done Wayne.

[@CProFishingWithWayne]

Usually big fish under the pilings

[@EngineeringHooksets]

[@CProFishingWithWayne]

They’re a lot of fun to catch and definitely a challenge. I will be doing some videos targeting big Snook 40 plus inches.

Nice adjustment to get your slot snook. Those jacks sure have plenty of fight!!

[@CProFishingWithWayne]

Thanks brother. It started out great and after less than an hour of fishing it starting pouring and the seas got big. Had to come in. Managed some nice Muttons right away though.

[@lonesomeknoteye]

Sick jack slomo footy dude. What a beautiful day for snookie bites! Hope your offshore trip was even better Cpro!!

[@CProFishingWithWayne]

Thanks bro!! Yeah I got caught in a storm during the first hour and had to come in, but managed a few nice Muttons.

[@FishyAngler]

I see you started on proven grounds, but you got jack there… 😂 looks like you were able to get to your shallow wall. And of course nice snook slot. I’m missing Florida fishing so bad…😒

[@CProFishingWithWayne]

Same very low tide again and slow current. Couldn’t get on any walls again.

[@joshwalker1441]

Dude that is my spot!!! 😎 Nice work. I’ll be out regardless of weather. Damn wind!

[@CProFishingWithWayne]

Tide has been so low I haven’t been able to fish my really good spots but that whole area has produced pretty well. I will be out there on Saturday.

[@joshwalker1441]

See you out there. Good luck!

[@PHFishingBiking]

[@CProFishingWithWayne]
