Snook are out on the beaches!
In the summer, snook move out to the beaches and passes to spawn.
This can be one of the best times to catch snook, especially without a boat.
But there are some key things to keep in mind while targeting snook from the beach if you want to have a successful day of catching.
If you want to know the top 3 snook fishing tips for the summer, then watch this video with Wader Dave, the master of wade fishing, for tips on how to catch snook from the beach.
Enjoy!

Wonderful video and information. Really enjoyed it, thanks! Regards,
So, drive boat along shore line , friend deploys drone to locate bait, dropoffs , schools of fish, seagrass or deeper current brakes?
I think we all need drones now. I saw 25 snook from drone lol. Can you see permit tarpon and Jack schools ?
Always check regulations for use of drones!
How do you approach and cast a fly to very skittish snook? Thanks!
Very carefully!!
Fantastic youvid
Amazing how he has patience for tutorial while beach side and fish are busting bait…lol. Awesome content
Awesome, informative video.
The drone footage was fantastic!
Great job!
Man this guy knows his stuff!
Snook fishin' at the beach with 6 lb test mono was one of my favorite things to do growing up in Sarasota. My biggest was 38" and took about 20 minutes to get to the beach. Big Pass was awesome for years and it's probably still great all summer on both sides. South Lido Park on Lido and the North Shell Road beach access on Siesta Key were my best spots. The snook were always close and most people cast way past them. That's one thing I miss about FL, ultralight snook at the beach and catching a bunch of fish in front of the people with surf rods that laughed until they saw the results.
Thanks so much for the comment!
Is big pass between Bradenton beach/Coquina and longboat key?
What location are you at? Gulf, or Atlantic?
Gulf side!
Fantastic Video! Wader Dave You are Awesome. I just learned a ton. Just started beach fishing here in Florida, now I can't wait to try these techniques
Awesome info, but where is the snook??? lol
Absolutely awesome video! Thank you. It would be really helpful if your video would point out what you are discussing especially on the aerial footage. It would improve viewer comprehension of your amazing insights and strategies. This is one of my all time favorite saltwater videos.
Thanks for watching!
Great video. A lot of good information and I loved the drone footage.
This was fantastic
Lol salesmen
dude talked for 11 minutes and never caught one snook LMAOOOO
I've fished with Dave before. Went snook fishing on the beach one time with him last summer, in the first 45 minutes he caught or or hooked 5 or 6 snook and I never had a bite. And I consider myself a decent fisherman. Say what you want about a 10 minute instructional video, but I know different.
Since there's no snook up here on the emerald coast, what species can I catch at this distance from the sand.
I just bought one of the g2 belts while i was watching this i cant believe it comes with all that
Very informative! You make this look like bass fishing!
Thumbs up on this for the title because I need this!!!!!
Good
Thanks
Honrymoon island?
Looks like it right?
@@tomahawk_nole1343 looks like north en. I tried to walk up there to fish but it was to far
Awesome review. What water temp is the key?
Thank you!!! Great info
Great video and information
Really Cool post
Wader Dave, what part of the world are you fishing in for this vid?
Central gulf coast of FL
Excellent lesson and drone footage!
Thanks!
Very informative video, thank you!
I live in NY but we’re moving to FL next year. I have a ton of striped bass surf lures, a lot of them are plugs. I notice that most of the FL snook lure fishing videos don’t show anybody using big plugs, mostly small jigs and rubber baits. Why is that? Wouldn’t larger plugs cull out the biggest snook?
It is because most people do not catch large snook, large being anywhere in the upper 30" range and above. True snook junkies would consider 8" paddle tails to be on the medium-small size. If you want an idea of what they can really eat, throw out a 14" ladyfish and you will see a 30" snook eat it. Also, a vast majority of the largest snook at taken night fishing where you can get away with the heavier tackle needed.
You are correct in that bigger baits catch the biggest, as for throwing plugs it can be difficult due to the areas where larger snook typically sit (bridge pilings, fenders, rock lines, deep cuts near rock structure) hence the preference for a treble-hookless option.
You should also step up your tackle beyond the tiny setup in the video. When swim baiting from land I use 9' musky rods rated anywhere from 1-8oz depending on the structure paired with Tranx 400A's spooled with 50lb braid. Any 300-400 size baitcaster will work. For throwing jigs its an 8'6 spinning rod lure wt. 1-4oz with a 6-8k sized reel, again spooled with 50lb braid both fished with about 8 feet of either 60lb or 80lb mono leader. Don't waste your money on Fluoro leader, I made the switch entirely to mono and have seen no difference.

Hey Timothy,
Thank you so much for this response but I feel weird answering it a year late lol. It’s because I only recently figured out how to get response notifications on RUclips.
I did catch a 40 incher a few weeks ago under a bridge while wade fishing with bucktails deep in the night. That felt good! But now that it’s hot out here in SE FL would I be able to cull out a large fish from the beach at night, or am I going to still only get smaller fish? I’m OK either way. If I fish the beaches at night is it better in the deep of the night, or should I fish mainly around dusk and dawn?
@@Onewayto2024 They are all over the beaches but are fairly spread out cause the coast line is large. You can get them from the 'beaches' on the edge of passes most consistently. Same thing, light flair hawks and big swimbaits on lighter jig heads to keep from dragging bottom. Congrats on the snook!

Thanks Timothy!
Am I better off deep in the night, middle of the day, dawn, dusk etc? When I used to surf cast for striped bass back when we lived on Long Island it was always better at dawn, dusk or into the deep night.
@@timothydavis6069 We beginners need to fish with you at least once in a lifetime to learn from your experience. Everything you have said in this post is absolutely corrected. It took me almost a year and a half to figure only 1/4 of your info provided here. Thank you for sharing your experience.
I do have a question though, I have all kinds of soft plastic lure (pattle tails, jerk shads, etc), what is the best retrieve for those lures? twitch/twitch/pause or straight retrieve barely catch me any fish in SW FL. Thanks!
Great drone videos! No action on your part, but lots of advise. BRING IT ALL ALIVE WITH ACTUAL CATCHES! Otherwise, you are professor of imaginative theory with little accomplishment in actual practice.
Thanks for the feedback!
How freaking rude😢
Quick question, why is the snook mastery sooo much more expensive than the tarpon mastery course. Was interested in the snook course until I saw the price. Is one better than the other?
I haven't gone through the tarpon course, but the snook mastery course with CA is fantastic.
JTug1106 would you say that it helped you catch more fish? I’m also interested in the community membership but don’t know if it would help me. Are there any Miami guys posting and in the community.
