Speckled trout fishing is as good as it gets along with stripers and hybrids being caught
Speckled trout fishing is as good as it gets along with stripers and hybrids being caughtBay: Abundance of speckled trout being caught with light colored Zoom tiny flukes and light colored super flukes, Electric chickens and hard bait. Great time for using standard floating lures. Some folks catching a fish every time the cast.
Fresh: Mostly crappie along with some large stripers and some hybrids being caught near the mouth of the Choctawhatchee River..
