Caught a freshwater snook going for bass

[Bassabductor69]

I caught my first snook today. Initially had a T rigged senko, after a couple hits but no fish switched to wacky rig. And to my surprise I caught a snook. I didn’t even know this lake had snook or connected to the ocean anywhere. I knew they could be found in brackish water but not freshwater.

 

 

I was wishing I had a scale to weigh it, but I would estimate it to be about 8-10lbs. And of course immediately after releasing I found a perfectly good scale someone left behind.

 

 

I’m pretty satisfied, new species for me. Never imagined I would catch my first snook in a random canal/lake. Having trouble posting pics, keeps saying file size too large and I can’t seem to make it fit
