Local Species Insights: Snook

Fort Myers snook thrive in the backcountry waters around Captiva and Sanibel, where mangrove shorelines and shallow flats provide ideal feeding habitat. These ambush predators position themselves near structure, waiting to strike at passing baitfish, shrimp, and crabs. In December, snook remain active in Southwest Florida's warm waters, often found around mangrove points, oyster bars, and creek mouths where tidal flow concentrates prey. Captain Dalton targets these fish using live bait presentations and sight fishing techniques, taking advantage of clear water conditions that allow anglers to spot snook before casting.
