When to fish gray snapper (mangrove snapper) in Puerto Rico

• Spring 3–22 ft — Present a small bait tight to mangrove shade, dock pilings or reef edges; current matters more than clock time.
• Summer 4–30 ft — Fish shade and moving water around docks, mangroves and reefs; scale bait and leader down for wary fish.
• Fall 5–35 ft — Work bay reefs and channel-side structure as larger fish edge deeper; chum lightly and keep baits near cover.
• Winter 8–45 ft — Concentrate on deeper reefs, wrecks and channels during warm, stable periods; expect a slower bite.
