South Padre Morning Bay Trip: Speckled Trout on Drift Fishing

Megan and I headed out for our fall morning trip with partly cloudy skies and the possibility of storms rolling in later. The early morning conditions looked promising as we launched from South Padre Island for our half-day bay fishing adventure with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures.

We focused on drift fishing and bottom fishing techniques, with some trolling mixed in to cover more water. Megan managed to land a solid speckled trout during our session. South Padre Island's bay system works well for these techniques because of the varied structure and current patterns that hold fish consistently. We wrapped up the morning run with good action and plenty of time before any weather moved in.
