nothing like the pull of a nice snook...I wish I would have been using lighter line....then again I don't. She took me towards the pilings, and i had to stop her and pull her away from the pilings.

tell me about it...I lost two at Dania Pier the other day..one on a chicken rig and the other on a sabiki lol I was using a couple of 6'6" medium action rods that I use for bass fishing so there was no way that I was going to catch those mogan snooks

yup...I had left it out waiting for the sardines to come by as they made their rounds around the pier and all of a sudden I felt a yank so hard that basically the rod was pulled from my hands...it was a miracle that I recovered it.

I know...I'm as clueless and confused as you are..then again, the sabiki I was using was made from 6# mono so it's not that hard to believe that only that one hook broke off.

My best snook.
Caught on a 2500 Abu Garcia Cardinal reel/Fenwick 7' Medium rod with 20lb PP, 40# mono leader with a white/chartreuse MirrOdine
I didn't get a measurement, but it weighed in just shy of 10lbs, and 9+.
I forgot the exact decimal.

My biggest snook off of Dania pier, estimated 25lb even though it doesn't seem that big from the pic. Caught on a small spinning rod with 15lb braid and 30lb flouro leader, fishing for small snook. I look like I was struggling to hold that fish up. :lol:
