Local Species Insights: Speckled Trout
Speckled trout thrive in Matagorda Bay's shallow waters where they feed along grass beds, oyster reefs, and drop-offs. These fish are most active during dawn and dusk when they move into the shallows to hunt for shrimp, small crabs, and baitfish. The bay's structure provides perfect ambush points where speckled trout wait for prey, making drift fishing and bottom fishing with live bait highly effective. During November, cooler water temperatures often concentrate these fish in deeper pockets and around structure, creating excellent opportunities for consistent action.
