Large numbers of BIG Speckled Trout
Large numbers of BIG Speckled Trout
Oct 2, 2025 Port Aransas
We've been seeing great numbers of 25"-29" (With a couple going 30") throughout the spring and summer. As we currently approach fall, we've already had a couple of "Northers" bringing cooler temps in and marking the beginning of my favorite time of the year to catch these Trophy fish. We'll see even better numbers in the fall and winter as these fish start feeding aggressively ahead of and after cold fronts. With all of the small baitfish leaving the bay in lower water temps, Trout tend to be less picky and a little easier to trick on lures! We're looking to have a record year here in South Texas. You won't want to miss out! - Capt. Ryan

The Saltwater Legend Series stop in Port Aransas was a huge success for my tournament team and I! We turned in a 2 day stringer good enough for 2nd place and $24k cash and prizes. We are definitely still on the Trophy Trout!
