Tom, very cool that you've found some fish still swimming on the beach! For snook and small tarpon, I generally a leader down to 15 lb, and then tie 2-2.5 ft of 30 lb fluoro shock tippet on the end because their mouths can really chafe your leader to nothing. Trent found out the hard way a few years ago when we watched a 30"+ swim off with his fly into the mangroves within seconds of taking the fly.
I texted a friend that lives in St. Pete and he said the red tide has been mostly on the beach, but hasn't impacted the back country fishing in Tampa Bay so far.
Good luck fishing to all of you.
