Local Species Insights: Speckled Trout
Speckled trout thrive in Port Aransas grass flats where they ambush shrimp and small baitfish. These aggressive feeders respond well to artificial lures worked over sandy bottoms and oyster structure. November brings cooler water temperatures that concentrate trout in predictable feeding areas, making sight fishing highly effective. Wade fishing allows anglers to approach quietly and present lures naturally in shallow water where these fish feel secure.
