IL1 - The Snook Book
by Frank Sargeant (ISBN 0-936513-13-6)
"Must" reading for anyone who loves the pursuit of this unique sub-tropic species. Every
aspect of how you can find and catch big snook is covered, in all seasons and all waters where snook are found. There are great shining hordes of the "linesiders" as far north as
Tampa Bay on the state's west coast, and northward to Cocoa Beach on the east coast, and yet the number of anglers who can consistently catch them remains remarkably small.
The Snook Book can change that, bringing the reader to a much higher level of expertise.
The text contains over 40 illustrations in its 18 chapters, and gives detailed explanations of every state-of
-the-art technique for finding and catching snook. Use of live baits, topwater lures, sinking plugs, jigs,
spoons and fly tackle are all included, as are special tips on wade fishing and selecting and running a
boat to reach those secret snook hideaways. The book is also a compendium of information on snook
biology, with information on snook growth, spawning, habits and habitat from scientific studies. And it
includes a directory of Florida's best snook guides, for those who want a bit of first-hand instruction.
