What is different about
the fall snapper season?
As the water temperatures
get cooler, bigger snapper
move into depths as shallow
as 40ft. This along with the
lack of pressure, since the
state season closed in early
September, will make limits
of nice snapper much more
accessible to the small boat
angler.
Any different techniques
for the fall season?
I like smaller hooks, leader,
and weights in shallow
water. Don't be afraid to
drop down to 50lb. leader
especially if the water is
clear.
