If you're looking to target speckled trout in Delaware, consider the waterways accessible from Bridgeville. While Bridgeville itself is inland, it offers a good jumping-off point to the tidal creeks and rivers that feed into the Delaware Bay, where specks thrive. Prime time is typically spring and fall, when water temperatures are moderate. Focus your efforts around structure like submerged oyster beds, grass beds, and creek mouths. A key local tip: Pay attention to tidal flow. Speckled trout often stage on the down-current side of structures, waiting for baitfish to be swept their way. For access, consider launching from boat ramps along the Nanticoke River and heading downstream towards the bay. Be aware that speckled trout populations can fluctuate, so check local fishing reports for the most up-to-date information on size and abundance.
