Conditions: Water clarity is good. The water level is very low due to the winter tides. As long as water temps are in the mid-60s or above the fishing will be very good. Lots of snook around.

Bait the fish are feeding on: Shrimp, Crabs, Pinfish, some Threadfin Herring.

You've seen lots of them from me this summer - like this one from back in June. But here's three pictures that from my perspective are every bit impressive...
