Spotted Seatrout
If you're after Spotted Seatrout near West Point, Texas, explore the diverse habitats of the Lavaca and Navidad River estuaries. This area provides a mix of shallow grass flats, oyster reefs, and deeper channels that hold trout year-round. Spring and fall are particularly productive, as trout transition between their winter and summer patterns. Focus on areas with good tidal flow and access to deeper water. A local hotspot is the mouth of the Navidad River where it enters Lavaca Bay. A very effective tactic is to use soft plastic lures under a popping cork, especially in the shallow grass flats. Pay attention to water clarity; trout prefer clearer water. Also, be mindful of the wind, as it can quickly muddy the water and make fishing difficult. Wading the flats early in the morning or late in the evening can be very rewarding, but always be cautious of stingrays.
