Snook on Edisto (UPDATED W/PICS)

one of my buddies down here cought a 23 inch snook behind his house yesterday. I saw the pic and there was no doubt as to what it was. Just thought yaull would like to here this. I wonder what all of the people that said there arent snook in south carolina will think.

My buddy finally got the pic sent to me. He had to take the pic himself with a camera phone so it isnt the best quality but the quality is still god enough to tell its a snook. Sorry it took me so long to get it.

Can you post the pic? I would like to see it…not that I dont believe…I would love to catch one. I have not caught a snook in years and that one was in the Glades.

I still havent recvd the pics from him hopefully he will get them to me today. Also I forgot to add that the fish was cought out of a saltwater pond so it actually survived through at least 1 winter.

There is a snook post at least twice a year. Somethin must be up. This is the biggest one I’ve heard of yet!!

E82,
I would like to see that picture too.

True. But if the water temps allow it, why couldn’t one find its way up north every once in a while. It may not survive the cooler months…

Brad I dont know if you know Shorie or not but his is the one that cought it and the pics are on his phone. For some reason when he has tried to text it to me it isnt showing up on my phone. Next time I see him I will try and get it to send.

sorry sells still no pics to post. the only pics he has are on his cell phone and every time he has tried to send them to my phone the text is showing up w/o the pic. i dont know what the issue is. Next time I run into my buddy i will try and get him to send the pics one more time.

he should be able to send the pic to your email address. just need to type in the email address instead of the phone number. at least, that’s how mine works, and it’s nothing fancy.

What would the legality of keeping it be?

Does DNR even recognize snook in South Carolina waters?
