Along with the cooling temperatures in Florida comes the very aggresive spotted sea trout action. This is the time of year where the large sea trout in the 23 inch to 35 inch range are common. These fish will be feeding aggresively during their winter time spawning.

These fish will attack anyhing from live bait to artificial, top water and on the bottom. Catching anywhere from 50 to 100 trout in a day becomes very common as the water temps get colder in the coming months.

Tackle Used: Light spinning gear
Method Used: Freeling live bait
