How To Catch Snook From The Beach. Locals also call it wade fishing, because it includes walking along the beach, kneehigh in the surf, casting as you go. Beach snook fishing requires a lot of walking but little wading.
Prepare your 5 gallon bucket with water and bubble machine. Wade into the water to give yourself a lower profile and cast up current, parallel to the beach. In early spring you can find them in the flats.
Snook are predators and will set up taking care of stations in specific zones.
It is important when you walk the beach that you keep a good distance between you and the water line. There can be some great opportunities to catch snook during the middle of the day along beach areas in the vicinity of passes and inlets. Beach snook are very wary and will bolt at the slightest sign of danger. The glow of a dock light is a baitfish magnet, and where you find the food is where you will find the snook.
