The fish bite had slowed down and they weren't hitting the topwater anymore, so I had to switch to regular fresh bait, but it was exciting. It disappeared but it was about 19 inches long. Then about 15 minutes later we got hit again. I was just playing around and next thing I know boom! A nice 22 inch speckled trout had hit it! Let me tell you my heart was racing. One cold morning I went out and I wanted to throw a top water lure. It all depends on what the fish want at that time and moment, and sometimes they can be picky of what they want to eat.Ī nice blowup from a trout with a top water lure is breathtaking! I normally use the Heddon Super Spook or a Bomber Badonk a’ Donk and jerk bait and Corky's. With the tandem rig you can switch from artificial to shrimp, or all cut bait. I like using the tandem rig when I'm fishing with artificial baits for trout. You can even use a scented bait strip like fish bites.

You can also use jigs that rig with soft plastics -artificial baits like a bait fish or a shrimp curly tail. Basically something like a Carolina rig if you are bottom fishing. If you are using fresh bait a standard J style hook will work. Just like when fishing for redfish, you can use whole shrimp to catch the speckled trout, or you can use squid, cut fish, crabs, peeler crabs and sand fleas. Some of the fishing lures and baits are the same for redfish. Speckled trout are also cousins to the redfish, they fight hard, and they are delicious to eat. Around the Gulf Coast we have quite a few big specs. Speckled trout is one of the amazing fish for surf fishing. Get ready for this year’s Bull Red Run and stay safe! Surf Fishing Speckled Trout For The Slam

Non-boaters will gather at the Galveston fishing piers or the Texas City dike or somewhere along the shorelines. The run is usually from mid-August through mid-October in Gulf waters, near the mouths of passes and shorelines. In Houston we gear up for The Bull Redfish Run. Why heavy fishing line, weights, and big hooks? Redfish love to run after being hook they will go to any structure that they can and you will end up with a break off. I use leader lines from 60 lb to 100 lb and 4/0 - 6/0 circle hooks. I used rigs from Just Bitten Fishing Tackle, the Captain rigs, Bull Red SKULL Leaders, and a couple other ones in ½ ounce to 4 ounces, even heavier weights, depending on the condition.

Some of the rigs that can be used is a Carolina Rig, redfish rig, popping cork and single drop rig plus many more pre-made ones. The best way for catching redfish with live bait is to rig the bait in a way that keeps it alive to swim around in a natural state as possible. Most fishermen use live bait shrimp, croaker, piggy perch, small crabs, mud minnows or finger mullet, or fresh cut bait, with any of the previous baits mentioned. I love fishing for redfish! My favorite fishing lure for redfish is the Kastmaster silver spoon, with weights of ¾ ounce to 1 ounce depending on the depth of the water.
