Local Species Insights: Speckled Trout

Speckled trout thrive in Matagorda Bay's grass flats and oyster reefs, where they ambush shrimp, mullet, and other baitfish. These aggressive feeders respond well to live bait presentations and artificial lures worked around structure, making them a favorite target for both novice and experienced anglers. During cooler months, speckled trout move to deeper channels and warmer pockets, while warmer weather finds them scattered across the shallow flats where sight fishing becomes incredibly exciting.
