Cool Front Turn on the Snook and Reds




We started out at 53 degrees this morning and the water was 67 degrees. The cool front made for tough conditions to fish with 20 knot winds and muddy waters but everglades fishing was good. Plenty of places to fish out of the wind. Pete, from Lynn Haven, and Dave, from Vernon, made sure they caught their share of reds and snook. Pete's snook weighed 12 lbs and Dave's red was 4 lbs. All snook were released and a limit of reds went home to the frying pan. These fish hit hard on shrimp and jig and also on fresh cut ladyfish. Most of the fishing was south of Everglades City between Houston and Lostmans Rivers. A fine everglades fishing day.
