Spotted Seatrout
Daphne, Alabama, located on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay, offers excellent opportunities for targeting Spotted Seatrout. The unique blend of saltwater and brackish water in Mobile Bay and its tributaries creates ideal habitat for these fish. The best time to fish for speckled trout here is during the spring and fall when the water temperatures are moderate. Focus your efforts around grass flats, oyster reefs, and docks, especially during periods of moving tide. A local's secret is to use popping corks with soft plastic lures to attract trout from a distance. The numerous public boat ramps around Daphne provide easy access to the bay. Be aware that the trout in Mobile Bay can be sensitive to changes in salinity and water clarity, so adjust your tactics accordingly. The speckled trout in this area are known for their aggressive strikes and can provide exciting action for anglers of all skill levels.
