Lines in the Sand: Fly Fishing for Snook in the Summertime

While many Florida fisherman despise the "dog days of summer," for some, there is something truly special about that sizzling, scorching heat. You see, come summertime, you can find snook hugging tight to the over 1,300 miles of sand laden shoreline that encases the state of Florida, as they traverse the southern half of the peninsula.
Procreation is on their mind…and like wildebeest on the Serengeti, these fish make their way towards the inlets, beaches and shallow-water reef systems along the coastline…their summertime vacation.
The most dedicated of anglers, like Florida resident Brenton Roberts, take full advantage of this yearly phenomenon, armed with a fly rod and a little bit of knowledge. Join us as we follow this seasoned summertime fly angler down the shores of Martin County, FL, as he hunts for bruiser linesiders that surely can't resist a well placed fly.

Awesome! Did this a lot back in the 1980's, the fly of choice was a white sparkle minnow. Many hundred fish days and sore thumbs. Best fishing there is.

Not only is this a very great video but your appreciation for beach snook and snook in general is awesome man. It’s awesome to see other anglers who love snook on fly. Me and my business partner guide out of St. Petersburg and Tampa. Beach snook is the time of the year we look forward to. It’s a tough game that people give up on, you stay persistent and dedicate and caught 2 lifetime fish that people dream of. Great work man! really that is super amazing and I’m stoked for you. We haven’t been out to the beach much yet, the traffic as you know is rough. Get in line leading a fish and someone comes out of no where and there goes your shot. But I don’t get mad I know it’s the beach so I have to accommodate. I’m a huge tarpon guy, but snook have Kind of passed that because it is a lot harder to get a big girl unicorn snook to eat then a big poon. If you ever want to hop on the skiff and fish or do some beach snook night or day give me a shout. I guide part time and work my full time job. Great work again man and congratulations on the hard work and dedication you put into your goal! Capt. Matt Foster Gulfcoastflyfish.com

MEGA LIKE. Oh God. Is too much beauty and luck and good fishing for a short video. You inspire me for what is coming. A trip to Barranquilla, Colombia where snook over 15 Kg are roaming over the Magdalena River mouth. 60 days left for that trip and counting. Thanks for sharing.

Man I wish the surf in NC was that calm. I don’t think I’ve ever been out when it wasn’t at least 2-3’ on average with a 4 footer or better every set. Not to mention that beautiful water clarity! I dream of the day I fish a beach like that haha

Nice fish! Nice video! Have you tried big (5/0) char and white clousers at the Ft Pierce inlet. If you tie your own, add some red Krystal Flash. Use a sinking line. Cast uptide, let it sink, and when it starts to swing, hold on! Awesome job. Make me miss Florida.

@jnb726 2 жыл бұрын

Great video, increasing my appetite for upcoming visit to 10,000 Islands in SW Florida. Question: what type of line were you using for that? It looked like sinking, not intermediate, but in that depth must have been a pretty slow sink rate? Any info you can provide, much obliged...

what pound leader do you use and do you use a bite tippet?

@javis5634 7 ай бұрын

Hello.. I will try to do it! Could you please. say the line you use? I am a rookie in the fly fishing methods . I got #6-7 rod (used 3 /5 times). But what leader and tipped set up, you use in this kind of specimen? Because I did a few times trout fishing. But this is totally new experience. and what tipe of fly, Streamer, I saw you use white ? Any name? to try to copy it. If you please adviced? thanks a lot in advanced! I am from Argentina.
