Vieques Snook

Here's New Jersey angler Marshall Hespe with a nice snook he caught this week near Laguan Kiani, just off the west end of Vieques. Along with his dad Bill, we fished together for two days in some very tricky conditions, including a torrential downpour on our second morning. In addition to this snook, Marshall also hooked a beautiful thirty pound tarpon by sight casting to it just off Green Beach. Marshall is only eleven years old but he's one of the most focused anglers I've ever had on my boat. He could hit any target that I pointed out quickly and accurately. These are two of the most valuable skills that a fisherman can posess and Marshall had them mastered. He's an avid angler so don't be surprised if you see his name along side some IGFA Junior World Records someday.
