good lures for snook?

I think the most popular lure for snook is a white bucktail jig in 1/4 oz for shallow 3/8 oz for 5 to 15 foot deep water and 1/2 oz for 12 to 30 ft deep water.

The best one will have red thread tieing on the tail as it resembles a bleeding bait fish. These are cast and allowed to drop very close to bridge and pier piling, concrete walls in boat docks, and at mangroves or jigged just off structure on the bottom, rocks, oyster beds, drop offs, and they are very effective at night around dock pilings under and around lights.

Many lures are sold but I doubt any locals in Florida use anything else very often because these work. I have caught all sorts of fish everywhere with these jigs and tie my own adding in some flashabou and a very few threads of holographic materials into the bucktail. Most fish strike on the fall so mark your line every few feet with a permanent marker with a reflective color starting 2 feet above the lure or use use a flourocarbon leader 3 feet long I use 30 pound test leader.

Watch your line on the drops when jigging if it even twitches set the hook! Have fun!
