I've fished the inside at Flamingo about 4 or 5 times now and have had some success catching the whole mix down there... redfish, trout, snapper, grouper, jewfish, etc... but have not caught a single snook yet.

I've fished in whitewater bay and have also run through the bays all the way over to the gulf coast and the passes there on the west coast. I've tried white bait, jigs, plugs, shrimp, (no pinfish yet though) and have caught some good fish, just no snook. Any advice on where to find snook down there this time of year is welcome. Should I be looking in the deeper canals/channels or along the shallower shorelines? out towards the passes or further north in the backcountry where the saltwater ends? It's discouraging I tell ya.... still a lot of fun though!

Well this is a late reply but maybe it will help. For anglers new to Flamingo I always recommend the Top Spots charts. These charts offer locations on where to find different species of fish and the time of year to fish those areas. I hope this helps you out.
