There are huge amounts of baitfish in the creeks along U.S. 41. And chasing the bait are some good-sized Snook.

Pictured above, excellent angler, Gerry Crow is a Registered New Hampshire Guide and operates www.nhriverguide.com

"Dawn usually brings the most strikes from Tarpon on the Trail. You'll have a good shot being the first to cast, " I told Gerry Crow, a New Hampshire fishing guide, and my guest for the cool January morning. We were on a secluded canal shore at daybreak and on his fourth cast, Gerry hooked a Tarpon....Jump, jump...gone. Gerry yelled, "Wow", That's a great way to begin the day!"

Our next stop brought both of us several more Tarpon hook ups and soon it was time to hunt trail creek Snook. Standing a few feet from speeding cars, we cast to boiling Snook for another two hours. Both of us had action using EP Mullet flies and Clousers. We ended up our fine day having lunch together! What'd we have? A Florida "Grouper Sandwich" of course!!
