Snook are a lot like stripers as far as fishing for them. Fishing an incoming tide seems to be good and if that coincides with Sunrise or Sunset all the better. I have caught quite a few on my trips to Florida and have got them on a number of different lures and flies. I have had good success with three inch Calcutta shad baits similar to the storms. I have used the olive chartruese and pearl depending on location water clarity (chartruese worked in choppy beach front waters). I have seen them early mornings cruising along the beach literally at the waters edge and if its clear and calm they don't hit too often but when its choppy and the waters silted up a bit they tend to hit a little more agressively. The other lure I have had good luck with are some of the locally sold jigs (1/4 to 3/8 oz) but I cannot think of the name off hand but they come in a lot of different colors. I have had good luck with the root beer color in the estuaries. For flies the standard charturese clouser should get the job done but a white deceiver would be another good bet. Check out the online forum for Florida Sportsman they have a fly section and other forums based on regions.
Good luck...
