    0:36 the way that beauty practically hugs the bottom is all you need to see to know just how well-evolved snook are for the shallows.

      I’ve never caught a Snook despite living here since the age of about 20 and I’m 56 now. Lol And, only live about 40 miles from Indian River Lagoon.

    Can’t wait for you to review the new R8 Just got to cast one, insanely smooth rod, incredible feel and accuracy in close , laser loops and high line speeds all the way out at long distances, this rod is a home run

      That's a Fishpond Headgate Tippet Holder if you are talking about the small one, the other big red one is an SA product that we no longer sell, but here are some good options: redsflyfishing.com/pages/search-results-page?q=tippet%20holder

      Thanks Andrew, really appreciate the nice words. That is the Fishpond Thunderhead Sling, totally great for salt. Here is a link to all of our Tropical Salt gear, big collection but it's a great starting point. In the video description there are some links to flies. redsflyfishing.com/collections/saltwater-tackle

    They're 10 species of snook.
    World record 61 lb 8 oz! In 12 ft of water.
    Florida 20-30lbs is not uncommon! They can also coexist with largemouth bass. In Florida snook can be landlocked in freshwater ponds with tarpon! Zero mangroves!

    Just a tip: get a mic and put it on you so when you turn or if it’s windy we can still hear you clearly.

    You need to just advise people on trout fishing and not be "an advisor" with fly fishing for fish that you have no clue what you are talking about.

      Ok, point these nice folks in the right direction for a good Snook 101 lesson. Would be curious to see what you come up with.
