Snook
Targeting Snook in Perdido Beach, Alabama, provides a unique fishing experience, as this is near the western edge of their natural range. While not as abundant as in South Florida, Snook can be found in the back bays, canals, and around docks and bridges in the Perdido Bay area. Look for them around structure where they can ambush prey. The warmer months, from late spring through early fall, offer the best opportunities, as Snook are highly sensitive to cold water. Live shrimp, pinfish, or mullet are excellent bait choices. For artificial lures, try soft plastic swimbaits, jerkbaits, or topwater plugs fished around structure. A key to success is to fish during periods of moving water, such as during the incoming or outgoing tide. Access to Snook fishing locations can be gained through various public boat ramps and kayak launches in the area. Be mindful of the regulations, as Snook are a protected species with specific size and bag limits. Because they are less common here, catching a Snook in Perdido Beach is often considered a special accomplishment for anglers.
