SEA TROUT FISHING WITH CAPTAIN LORI DEATON
Spotted Sea Trout have a long streamlined body. They are silvery in
color with hints of olive green along their backs and are covered in
numerous black spots. They have a very large soft mouth with two very
prominent canine teeth. While these toothy creatures prefer water
tempatures between
65 and 75 degrees, they are still often caught during warmer or cooler
tempatures.
These feisty fish can be found in any inshore waters. In rivers, on
grass flats, in sandy potholes, as well as around docks and structure.
A gentle hook set is imperative as the soft mouth tissue tears quite easily. Circle hooks should be used in order not to gut hook this sensitive species.
Often, Trout are found in large numbers making them a great target for
non-stop action, especially for kids. Although most larger trout are solitary, large numbers of slot sized trout are easily found in schools for non stop action.
