Spotted Seatrout
Explore the bayous and estuaries around Morgan City, Louisiana, and you'll find yourself in prime spotted seatrout territory. These speckled beauties thrive in the brackish waters where the Atchafalaya River meets the Gulf. Spring and fall are the most productive times, as seatrout move into the shallows to feed. A popping cork with a soft plastic shrimp imitation is a deadly combination. Focus on areas with moving water, such as points, cuts, and oyster beds. The marshes south of Morgan City offer endless opportunities for exploration. Launching from a public ramp near Amelia is a good starting point. Pay attention to the tides; falling tides often concentrate fish. Also, be aware of the presence of alligators in these waters and take appropriate precautions. The seatrout in this region are known for their aggressive strikes and provide excellent light tackle action.
