Lukas,
I have a little experience fishing that area from a boat, but have a lot of experience fishing Snook, with occasional Reds and Tarpon in Southwest Florida.
From my experience, the Snook aren't on the beach that late in the year, and the ones you can catch on the fly will be in the mangroves and around docks/structure to some extent. Looking at Google, there are a number of kayak and canoe rental places that situate you in fairly prime looking water, and I'd recommend trying this over wading. One example is Sweetwater Kayak; I have no experience or affiliation with this company, I can just see it's in an area that looks good and is fairly protected if you run into wind. At higher tide (i.e. water under the mangroves), I would drift a mangrove shore line and put flies right against the trees. At lower tide, I'd drift a flat and look for fish as well as casting into potholes (in a grass flat, this is a spot without grass). With all of this fishing, I like to fish a neutral density fly like an EP Baitfish or Schminnow without weight, but also carry some clousers, shrimp, or crab flies lead eyes if you need to get down.
Good luck!
