Local Species Insights: Speckled Trout

Speckled Trout thrive in South Padre Island's nearshore and coastal river habitats, where they feed actively in grass flats and structure areas. These fish respond well to light tackle presentations, particularly during morning hours when water temperatures are optimal. October conditions bring excellent Speckled Trout action as fish move into shallow bay areas to feed. The species' willingness to take both live bait and artificial lures makes them perfect targets for varied fishing techniques, ensuring consistent action for charter guests throughout the morning trip.
