There are many lure options available to help you catch more speckled trout. Here are some examples of the most effective: Chuggers. MirrOlures. RAP Slashbait. Heddon Super Hook. These lures are designed to imitate the erratic movements of a speckled trout and attract strikes from the fish.
MirrOlures
The 52M series MirrOlures baits are excellent for speckled trout fish fishing. They're similar to MirroDine suspendingbaits. This bait is larger in profile and is designed to imitate grunts or pin fish. It's great on grassy flats, in 4-8 feet of water. The 52M series features a "19" color pattern that's particularly effective on water that's both weedy and has plenty of vegetation. This lure can be used with a simple pause and twitch retrieve. It will remain motionless in its strike zone. This bait is attractive to speckled trout and they will take it up with gusto!
This top water lure can also be used to target inshore predators. For a parallel cast, use the MirrOlures topdog to place the lure within two feet of mangrove branches. This will attract snook and redfish as well as trout. Popa Dog or Atop Dog are other effective top-water lures that are suspended in the water.
Chuggers
Chuggers can be described as overgrown poppers. The chugger's flattened, concave skull and long skirt generate lots of vibration when they are flicked. This makes them an excellent choice for attracting smallmouth bass, spotted bass, and schooling stripers. However, chuggers can't be as successful with larger predators like pike or muskie. Here are some tips and tricks to help you catch more beautiful fish.
First, you can try a weedless spoon. These can be used over oyster bars or seagrass beds. They are fluttering so it is important to tie them with a swivel. Slowly retrieve the lure. Shad tail lures are particularly effective. Another popular topwater lure is the MirrOlure Popa Dog. This lure works best in shallow water about 6 feet deep.
Rapala X-Rap Slashbait
Rapala's newest lure the X-Rap. The lure features a long casting system with an irresistible rattle and integrated long casting. This bait is made with Permasteel hooks that are fastened to the body wire using stainsless steel. This bait is ideal for large speckled trout because of its aggressive darting action, rolled tail and rolling tail.
The X-Rap shines regardless of the fishing situation. Its petite profile reminds one of a small mullet. The X-Rap sinks readily to two to four feet and is an ideal choice for shoreline fishing. This bait will bring in big-meal speckled trout.

FAQ
How often should I change my lures

It is part of the game to lose a fish. Sometimes, you will catch a fish and then lose it. If this happens, keep trying. You will eventually catch another fish.
How deep can I cast my line of sight?
Cast your line as deep as possible. To ensure the line doesn't twist, your arm should be straightened when casting a slender line.
How long does it usually take to become a master fisherman

Statistics
- For most freshwater species you are most likely to target when first starting out, a reel size of 20 to 30 should be more than enough! (strikeandcatch.com)
- About 40 percent of all fish are freshwater species. (takemefishing.org)
- To substantiate this theory, Knight attempted a systematic inquiry by considering the timing of 200 'record' catches, more than 90 percent were made during a new moon (when no moon is visible). (myfwc.com)
- It is estimated there are at least 2 million people who go fishing in California each year. (californiayachtsales.com)

How To
Why should you use a spinning rod?
Spinning Rods are useful for casting your lure into the waters without leaving the boat. If you don’t have the time or desire to get back in your boat quickly after each cast, it’s a great choice. A spinning rod can be used to cast from any location and maintain control of your line. There are three major components to the rod; handle, butt and reel section. The handle is the part that holds the rod in your hand and grips the shaft. The rod's tips are attached to the hook by the butt portion. Finally, the reel seat holds your line onto the reel. There are many options for rods. Some rods can only be used for trolling and casting. Others can be used to fly fish, spin fish, baitfish, and so on.
The type of fish you intend to catch will determine the type of rod that you choose. For example, if you intend to catch large predatory species like pike or bass, you'll need a heavy-duty fishing rod. If you are targeting smaller species, such as trout and salmon, a lighter-weight rod may be more effective. You could even get multiple rod sizes to match the size of the fish that you wish to catch.
Spinning Rods can be used for more than just freshwater fishing. They are often used for saltwater fishermanship. Saltwater spinning rods are generally heavier than their freshwater counterparts because they require stronger materials to withstand the rigors of saltwater. Saltwater spinners tend to have a longer rod, but a larger diameter. This allows them to cast farther distances. There are downsides to saltwater spinning rods. First, saltwater spinning rods do not come with reels like freshwater ones. Instead, one must be purchased separately. They can also be very expensive. A spinning rod is worth your consideration if you enjoy catching larger fish.
A spin fishing method is when a fisherman uses his spinning rod to cast a weighted lure in the water. The lure spins around the center point of the weighted lure as it swims through the water. This causes the lure and fish to move around in the water erratically, making it harder for them to identify the lure. Fish may also mistake the lure for food and begin feeding on it. The lure will draw more fish to itself. The lure's line can then be reeled in by a fisherman. Once the lure is pulled, the fisherman can keep going until he catches the desired number of fish.
