The formula that uses length times girth squared divided by 800 to calculate an estimated weight of a generalized fish does not fit the highly variable length-weight relationship for common snook, so we provide a table of mean observed weights of snook of known lengths. Because scales are expensive, and it is human nature to want to know the weight of even nonlegal fish, anglers from all across Florida commonly request that we provide the weight of a snook larger than the legal maximum total length of 34 inches. As the benefits of restrictive harvest regulations on this species begin to accrue, however, many lunker snook are currently reported in the catch from south Florida. Prior to 2000, it was a rare event that any angler reported catching, or even seeing, a common snook much larger than 36 inches total length, especially on the gulf coast.

Getting it to the kayak took a solid 10 minutes of wrestling with this gal, and she didn’t go down without a fight. 
Went out in the yak for a couple hours on my day off and that’s when it happened in Old Tampa Bay. SUBSCRIBE FOR NEW VIDEOS! If you enjoyed this video, the best way to support making more like this is to subscribe.
