Fishing Artificial Bait Catching Snook Jacks Grouper on Lures

Want to know how to catch saltwater fish on lures? In this video I was fishing for snook with artificial minnow swim baits and jigs. I ended up catching a big jack crevalle, several grouper and a couple of snook too. This video will show you how to fish artificial lures on grass flats, near bridges and along seawalls.

If you are planning on fishing in South Florida, go to any bridge you can find for some amazing inshore fish catching action. There are always fish around the pilings, seawalls, any rocks or grass flats that are in the area.

Here's an important tip though, go fishing in the early morning or late afternoon/early evening hours. When fishing inshore or from the shore, I always catch the most fish during these times. Well, if you are fishing for snook you can fish during the night time too.

In this video I am fishing with a Rebel Broken Back minnow lure. I think it is about five and a half inches long. One of the biggest challenges I faced when I was recording this fishing footage was the seaweed. That's why I caught a couple of grouper on jigs.

It's so difficult to to retrieve minnow type lures that have treble hooks on them when there's a bunch of seaweed in the water. I actually went to Walmart the other night and purchased some weedless artificial shrimp and small mullet soft plastic baits. I'll be publishing a video soon of me catching a snook on the Tsunami shrimp lure around some grass flats. I also had a couple of hits on the mullet soft plastic baits too, didn't catch anything on them though while fishing along a seawall.

Here are the key elements needed for catching saltwater fish inshore in Florida, from the bank or bridges:

1. Current-You want the tide to be moving

2. Structure-Bridges provide excellent structure for fish to hide around. Some people don't even think about the old bridges that were torn down in the area they are fishing in. If you can find some of the old bridge remains, you have a great chance at catching some grouper, snook, snapper...Many of my videos show me catching snook near rocks and seawalls, grouper too!

3. Time Of Day-Explained in the third paragraph above

4. Correct Bait-I love throwing artificial lures that look like greenback minnows or small mullet. If you are fishing near a grass flat, DOA Shrimp or Tsunami artificial shrimp will catch fish. Always try to match the bait that's in the area. In South Florida we have a bunch of pin fish, lady fish, shrimp, mullet and green backs that fish love to eat. Get an artificial bait that mimics what the snook, grouper, snapper, trout, lady fish or jack crevalle naturally feed on.
