Expert Tips for Targeting Red Snapper

When it comes to targeting red snapper, experience counts. That's why Captain Ronnie and the crew at Rooster Tail Fishing Charters swear by two tried-and-true methods: butterflied mackerel and live bait.

Butterflied Mackerel: A Proven Technique

Butterflied mackerel is a favorite among seasoned anglers for its irresistible appeal to red snapper. Our team meticulously prepares each bait, ensuring optimal presentation and maximum success on the water.

Live Bait: The Key to Snapper Success

For those seeking the ultimate thrill, nothing beats the excitement of using live bait. At Rooster Tail Fishing Charters, we provide top-quality live bait to entice even the most elusive red snapper.

Choosing the Right Rig

The right rig can make all the difference when targeting red snapper. Captain Ronnie recommends using a Carolina rig for its versatility and effectiveness. In calmer conditions, a free line setup can also yield impressive results.
