Spotted Seatrout
If you're after Spotted Seatrout, Lafitte, Louisiana, is a prime location. The maze of bayous, marshes, and bays around Lafitte offers ideal habitat. Focus your efforts in areas with good tidal flow and structure like oyster beds, grass flats, and points. Spring and fall are generally the best times, as the trout are actively feeding before and after the heat of summer. Live shrimp under a popping cork is a local favorite, but don't overlook soft plastics on a jighead. Pay attention to water clarity; trout prefer cleaner water. A local tip: the Barataria Waterway and surrounding canals are known trout hotspots. Also, be aware of the prevalent winds; they can significantly impact water conditions and fishing success.
