White Trout?

Is anybody getting on some White Trout lately? I'd like to catch some since it's been awhile. Got any "secret" spots and tactics you would share with a brother?

Thanks :D

White trout is an excellent bait for white trout.

Rigs around lower Mobile Bay are the best go-to spots.

Yeah, I was figuring that. I was kinda hoping for one I can get to from shore. I'll have to talk my buddy in to going there some time with the boat instead of offshore.

I dont know of anywhere to catch them consistently from shore during summer. During Fall, the bank over the Tensaw River on the causeway can be good. I've caught them from the pier in cooler months.

They say the Fairhope pier at night has lots of white trout but i havent tried it

^^^^
went the other night caught 1 no one else caught one

We used to catch them pretty good from the GSPPier at times, but not the last few years (hmmm, whadup wit dat?)

Anyway Big Mouth (south end of Co Rd 1) day or night, and Cedar Pt Pier at night.
Fairhope should be getting good soon (at night under the lights),
and maybe Mayday pier in another month.
Also DI Golf Course can hold decent numbers on cut bait or Gulp Shrimp in the summer, as well as accessible places in Terry Cove, Cotton Bayou and lower Mobile Bay (like Ft Morgan).

Most dock lights should be full of them at night IF you can gain access.

Hope this helps!

I think in the Fall of 2011, late one evening I got into a mess of them on the backside of the octi on the pier until I ran out of dead shrimp. Also caught a Lookdown and a big *ss Gafftop. Guess it was lucky timing. I should try it again. That was fun! :)
