Spotted Seatrout

If you're after Spotted Seatrout, the waters around St. Marys, Georgia, offer excellent opportunities. This area is known for its extensive marshlands and tidal creeks, creating ideal habitat for trout. Spring and fall are particularly productive, as the fish move into shallower waters to feed. Focus on areas with good tidal flow and structure, such as oyster beds and grass lines. Natural presentations often outperform artificial lures, so consider using live shrimp or small baitfish. A local's secret: the Crooked River State Park provides excellent access to the Crooked River and surrounding creeks. Be mindful of the tides; trout often concentrate in deeper pockets during low tide and spread out along the grass lines as the tide rises. Remember that the size and abundance of trout can vary from year to year based on environmental conditions, so stay updated on local fishing reports.
