Wow, now that's a fish! SNOOK:

One of the most sought after sports fish in the world. Anglers travel all over the world to fish for the SNOOK. Powerful and fast swimmer on takeoff... Higher Jumper then the Bass. Very sensitive to water temperatures being a tropical species that requires skill in catching this elusive phenomenon. A game fish of... BEAUTY. Spring through Fall offers the best periods to catch this prize...

Tarpon are huge here in Florida! The Silver King... a migratory fish within our area that possibly can start early March thru June with evasive juveniles (up to 40-50 lbs.) staying the year around. Another water temperature sensitive fish that weight can be attained to reach over 150 lbs.
A beginning Take Off... of... "Tally Hoe"... a skipping 105 shell across the water... only LONGER. The advantage is knowledge on how to combat this SILVER KING that you will be taught various methods to accomplish... one of the... GOALS OF LIFE! Options of various procedures and presentations have to be determined to get results and weather is one of the radicals that help you decide. Just try to imagine a +100 lbs SILVER KING BEAUTY... jumping and clearing 4-5 ft. out of the water.
