Speck Fishing Gets No Better, and It’s Happening NOW!

Every year, beginning right about now, speckled trout move into a pattern that is consistently great. Literally, for me, it's the easiest way to find and catch them, and the fish are often as big as 22 inches.
On my most recent trip, I went exploring for new areas to fish this pattern, and it didn't take me long to find a bite that was as good as it gets!
Check out the video for all the details.

I love how you explain what youre doing and why youre doing it. so many other channels so them fishing without any knowledgable explanations! You, sir, are the Richard Gene of South Louisiana! 😀 I live along the Alabama Coast not for from Dauphin Island, AL. Last week I went to see if the Specks showed up in my honey hole and son did they! Caught 17" to 20"s and had my limit in 30 minutes and left them biting!

[@glenntoups4615]

Nice trout and thank God for Marsh Romance when the wind stops ...Way to be an awesome CONSERVATIONIST

[@askip7]

Thanks for the video, I always enjoy and appreciate. In the future I’d really appreciate it if you could let us know what area you’re fishing…not necessarily your exact spot, just what general area. Thanks!

[@SpeckledSouth]

Good to see Joel! Hope to see a video with him soon. Greetings from Biloxi, MS!

[@johnfontenot7861]

Great cooking demo Todd, and good to see Joel! You definitely did right by those flounder. Happy Easter from my family to yours!

[@adamlee1832]

Specks in da marsh and Joel back on the screen! Good day!

[@jimhahn2728]

Those were some nice trout! I believe it was changing to the Green Hornet Matrix Shad. I've been catching trout over here in Jacksonville using the Holy Joely but, I started catching bigger trout on the Green Hornet. The reds like it too! The smallest red we can keep here is about the largest I want to keep, 18 inches.

[@ronnieA251]

Great trip, great video and great catch and cook. It just doesn't get any better. Recipe was just what I was looking for, for flounder!

[@JoshuaFatman]

I like the fact you actually keep the fish makes me so mad to watch striclty catch and release lo😂

[@barrywuthrich8530]

Great video. There's no way I would have left that last spot without throwing a Super Spook, just in case big Bertha was down there. I caught a 21" on top last Friday, so you never know.

[@rrgH20polo]

Great vid Man ! Oh, to keep the fish from sticking to the pan, coat it with butter lol.

[@patricktrous]

looks like i need to drag the boat over to sabine lake and give it a shot my consern is all the rain we just got

[@ianjones6910]

Flounder rules....I used to surf fish a lot at Fourchon, and I'd always get a bunch in late summer there. Definitely the most underrated fish, in terms of table fare - I rate them far higher than trout, and so versatile.

[@mserio3]

Happy Easter! Be safe out there!

[@johnfontenot7861]

Todd ask Okuma for an X series reel, I want to see it in action.

[@LarryBoyfishing]

Water looks nice

[@gillisdanos9354]

Most enjoyable video. Nicely done.

[@hookmwoodfishingchannel9233]

How marsh man that’s my spot sir you didn’t see my name on that crab trap floating 😂 but I knew where you where I was there the last weekend

[@TheSHOP411]

Nice video. Apples? Definitely going to add that to my stuffing next time. Thanks.

[@1957cajun]

No amount of butter is too much butter for me! Keep it up! You know what’s good!

[@markleblanc451]

About 2lbs of crabmeat mixed in the stuffing would’ve sent It over the top!

[@jimmyfumbanks6081]

When they are guarding the nest , fish are not concerned with eating , they want to run the preditors off, thus getting Fogel hooked.

[@MarshManMasson]

Speckled trout don't guard nests.

[@JoeMccolloster]

If you like tail action. You should try some of Marsh Demon lures.

[@dwaynepetit6770]

Man I would love to come with you on a trip please think about it my name is Dwayne I love your KZbin shows been a fan since I don't know give me try one day thank you

[@thesmokinbuddhabbq]

[@MarshManMasson]

Bribe him with some BBQ

[@michaelhebert6974]

Todd, on the video of April 2, what rod you used? length, power, flex and brand. Thank you, Sir

Where are you at?

[@montanacosta]

You know what they say about Cajun food. If you die of old age in Louisiana it’s your own fault

[@MarshManMasson]

🤣

[@PeteSchaff]

North, South, east or west?

[@jimmyfumbanks6081]

Way too much seasoning on a mild flavored fish , might as well bought some lagoon raised Vietnam Tilapia.
