Tropical waters of the Atlantic ocean. From the coast North Carolina to brazil, including all in between; The Gulf and the Caribbean. Cannot be found in on the West Coast. Found in shallow water, near bridges, piers, jetty's during the summer. Snook can also be found in lakes depending on the species of the snook.

Adult snook feed on fish and large crustaceans. Juvenile snook live in low salinity habitats with physical structures. They use this for mangroves or pilings where small crabs and shrimp hang around so they can feed.

They are protandric hermaphrodites which means they can turn into females when they get so large. So they have a strong reproduction. Snook lay eggs After hatching the larvae hang around swamps, mangroves for the first months The next part of their life they are young juveniles that hang around low salinity areas until they are sexually mature.

Can only be kept between inches Seasons, closed decemeber 1 till the end of February. And May 1 st till august 31 st. Should not be held vertically, should hold horizontally while supporting the belly.

Snook are euryhaline fish, meaning they can live in both fresh and salt water enviorments. Male snook can live up to 6.4 years, and females can live up to 9.2 years. 5 Different species of snook in florida water common snook, small-scale fat snook large-scale fat snook swordspine snook tarpon snook.
