Blue light Snook Snook fishing in Naples, Florida can be interesting. If you don’t know Naples is the Beverly Hills of the east coast and all that that implies. 11:00pm some friends and I are working the sea wall casting to Snook And Jacks using the EP purple fly. The fish are stacked up this time of year getting ready to spawn on the next full moon. We were catching fish at a steady rate. The best way is to cast to fish working a light for 5 to 10 minutes. If you hook up leave that light for a half hour or so and work the other lights in the area. Great and effective only one problem TRESSPASSING ! I do live on the bay so it is ok to fish in front of “My property” but the sea wall is miles long and don’t you know it is all

private property. Signs hidden in bushes on docks etc. I never really noticed I was just fishing. I have been fishing the same lights for months. This night the local constable and her dog greeted my friends and I with a complaint. “ Some one called and said you were killing under sized Snook” I assured her we were catch and release fly fisherman and no killing was going on. “ I need to see your ID and come back to the car please” Back at the car we got a stern talking to and told we can only fish on your own property. However you can make noise, fish any light, cast at anything etc if your on a boat. So from now on Snook fishing will be in a boat the trespassing laws don’t apply.
See ya in a boat Joe-m
