FISHING ADVENTURES IN FLORIDA
Is there a cure for snook fever?

“I’ve landed plenty of snook with a light bait-casting outfit. Don’t fish for snook any other way. You can cane pole ’em with heavy lines off piers and bridges, or troll for ’em. But I like to scrub the bushes and make ’em hit top-water plugs.” This was how Cal Stone introduced the author to light tackle fishing many decades ago in the waters of south Florida.

Steer through twisted mangrove channels, dodge “noggin-knockers” and oyster bars on outgoing tides, and join author Max Hunn as he brawls with tarpon and tangles with snook and redfish, mostly in the Ten Thousand Islands country.

“Lest we forget, these great stories remind us of those halcyon days when snook abundantly outnumbered their fishermen, regulations generously reflected thriving populations, and the future of snook and snook fishing was never in doubt. Thank you, Max, for providing another waypoint by which we can measure our losses and help set our sights toward recovery of our favorite gamefish.”—Howard Wells, Executive Director of the Snook Foundation

"Max Hunn provides several insights into those questions via absorbing vignettes of what angling life was like in the mid 1950s. In fact, with an ingeniously fluid narrative, we are actually transported back in time, where the reader virtually becomes a participant in those earlier angling journeys."—Captain Mel Berman
