Beyond the main game fish, Florida’s coastal waters are home to a massive variety of other fascinating species. The Snook is a legendary linesider known for its explosive topwater strikes and powerful runs under mangrove roots. In the sandy passes, you’ll find the Sheepshead, recognizable by its vertical black bars and human-like teeth used for crushing barnacles. Other common sights include the prehistoric Tarpon, the high-jumping "Silver King," and the aggressive Bluefish that frequent the surf. From the strange-looking Flounder camouflaged on the bottom to the hard-fighting Ladyfish, there is always something biting in the salt.
