PB on Fly

10 pounds on  midnight mullet pattern. It seems the smaller snook are going for the glass minnow and a little larger profile for the bigger ones. Got into the backing on one yesterday on a really nice one but the 20# tippet didn’t hold up. Put on a bite tippet this am.

Capt Don, that is sweet!  Great one on fly. 

I missed you by a couple of days; I was down this past weekend and fished those rocks Saturday and Sunday mornings at first light til about 9:30.  Been a long time since I saw the Snook (and some Tarpon) that thick on the beach.  We caught several up to about 5 # and had a ball.  Like you said, the smaller Snook were pinning the glass minnows up on the beach and we were casting about 15 or 20 feet.

Yep, Sat and Sunday were the best days I've seen in a very long time on the beach.  I was wondering, there was an older guy like me that waded out and threw about a 5' net to get a ton of glass minnows, then fished them with a small weight.  He was catching a lot of Snook.  Would that have been your buddy?
