Snapper baits
Supposedly this is one of the best times for mutton snapper and I was wondering what baits people are using and if its better to fish in the daytime or nighttime for snapper. I heard DOA shrimp were effictive at times but that live is the best. I fish at anglins so they don't offer live shrimp so does frozen work well enough or do i have to go all the way to Dania then drive all the way to anglins for shrimp. help please

Fresh cut bait like gogs, ballyhoo, pilchards, and good old shrimp.

Re: Snapper baits
Fresh bait is the key and 2 hours before and after sunrise and sunset are the best times IMHO
Dreaming the dream that one day I can be as good as some of the boatless pros and catch some 12 inch mangrove snapper.

Small grunts or pinfish, either cut in half, butterflied or just stepped on to get the juices flowing.
