Targeting Speckled Trout around LEDGES and DEEPER water (MirroLure MR18 Heavy Dine MG)
Join me as I take my buddy Chad deep into the back creeks of Eastern North Carolina targeting Speckled Trout and searching for potential Winter area to fish. I used Google Maps and zoomed in on different areas that look similar to what we fish in the Winter time here in Swansboro. As most of you know, you have to fish deeper water during the winter. With that in mind, we marked a lot of fish in the 6-8' foot range. These fish were stacked on a ledge just looking for a free meal to cross their path. We parked the boat in 2' of water and threw into the wind and let the current drift pull my MirroLure back towards me as it sunk fast. After about 6 seconds of drop, I then began my retrieval process.
I'm hoping as I build my notebook for the years to come, that my content and videos has helped some of you. I'm not an exceptional fisherman by any means, but I do my best as the average man/woman who loves to fish. Enjoy the video and as always, thank everyone of you who like, comment and subscribe to the channel. It means more than yall will know.
Tight Lines!!!

Absolutely. I’ve learned a lot this winter. Especially fishing low and slow with soft plastics. I’ve always been hard headed and won’t get off my MirroLure lol. But they slick/slick jr on a 1/16 or 1/8 jig head has made me learn a lot.

It’s been wild how many good trout we’ve found in winter spots. I just hope we can avoid a long hard freeze. If we can do that it should be non stop all winter.
Great video. They starting to come in for us up here in Jacksonville NC as well.

Awesome!! Man I have a feeling it’s gonna be a solid winter as long as we don’t get a hard freeze. They’re already in winter spots and not even schooled up yet.
Nice job fellas! Great day

Thank you! Me and my buddies have had a killer run here lately.
Looks like a good time, im still catching mine towards the mouths of the creeks. I think the early cold now late heat has them all over the place.

I figured they’d be some in potential winter spots but the depth finder showed they were pretty stacked and schooled

Idk much about New River but from what I’ve seen it’s good late Sept to early Nov then it’s hit or miss.
