Snook
If you're seeking Snook in the Naples area, you're in for a treat. These ambush predators are abundant in the mangrove-lined shorelines, docks, and bridges that characterize the local waterways. Focus your efforts around structure, particularly during tidal changes. The warmer months (spring through fall) are generally best, as Snook are more active in warmer water. Live shrimp or small baitfish are highly effective, but artificial lures like topwater plugs and swimbaits can also produce explosive strikes. A local tip: Fish around the lighted docks and bridges at night; Snook are drawn to the light to feed on baitfish. Be aware of the size regulations, as Snook are carefully managed in Florida. The Snook population around Naples is robust, and landing a trophy-sized fish is a real possibility, especially during their spawning season.
