This month we haven't seen the production that we normally see from the train bridge as far as Speckled Trout go. Anglers are having to work for their catch this month. Fishing the bridge is all about being patient and finding the pattern. Sometimes, the fish hold tight to the bridge, other days they may hold 20-50 yards off of the pilings. Once you catch the first fish, that will tend to be the pattern for the day. Fishing hard tide days usually hold the best box filling trips. A couple of key baits that have been producing great numbers are Matrix Shad in Pink Champagne, Ultra Violet, Lemon Head, and Shriimp Creole. When jigging these soft plastics, combine them with a 3/8 or 1/2 jig head depending on the tide. The large numbers may leave later in the month but the bigger trout will stay due to less boat and school trout pressure. Trestles and Hwy 11 bridge are prime spots for trophy trout and this year may be someone's lucky year.
