BajaNomad - Snook & the Rain

Snook & the Rain

bajacalifornian - 10-31-2013 at 04:10 PM

Years with rain, we find robalo in the mangroves.

They like the mixture of salt & fresh water.

Although a hunt for them got a rain delay yesterday,
May be snook among the larger more plentiful shrimp,
After the rains.

In Nicaragua I fish the rivers and canals close to the outlet to the ocean and we always nail them hard during the rain.

same here

The book was written for REMOTE beach launched boat fishing without live bait. For kayak fisherman it still has a lot of good info. The paces he doesn't talk about are also pretty fishy. It's kinda like this board, sometimes dated info

sometimes great info. Sometime BS
