Spotted Seatrout
Targeting speckled trout near Port Allen means exploring the brackish waters and coastal marshes south of the city. The inshore bays and bayous are prime habitat for these fish. Focus on areas with oyster beds, grass flats, and points where currents converge. Spring and fall are traditionally the best times, as the trout are actively feeding and moving between their spawning and feeding grounds. A local tip is to pay attention to the salinity levels – trout prefer a slightly brackish environment. Also, watch for signs of baitfish activity, as this often indicates the presence of trout. Port Allen provides easy access to boat launches that will get you into the heart of trout country. Louisiana speckled trout are known for their aggressive strikes, especially on topwater lures in the early morning or late evening. Remember to check local regulations for size and creel limits before you head out.
