Inshore fishing is the most popular type of fishing for speckled trout in Melbourne as well as flats fishing, nearshore fishing, and river fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Melbourne are light tackle fishing, artificial lure fishing, and live bait fishing but sight casting and fly fishing are popular as well.

How much do Melbourne speckled trout fishing charters cost?

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for speckled trout fishing in Melbourne?

    Taylor was a great captain who was a joy to fish with and put us on the fish. He's an easy going guy who, despite being a younger captain, already has considerable experience in Mosquito Lagoon. He was right on time, the boat was clean and well-organized, and spotted so many fish for us. Taylor is your secret weapon in the Lagoon.

    My 9 year old son and I had a wonderful time. Captain Neal was friendly and informative. We caught trout, sailcat, and hooked and saw a tarpon but it broke the line about 10-15 feet from the boat. It was amazing. We are returning to Florida in December and we will be booking with Captain Neal again.

    Captain Neal is a very knowledgeable Captain, very laid back and a great teacher. It was a slow bite at the beginning of our trip but Captain Neal put us on the fish. We caught many Trout, brought in 4 keepers, a ladyfish, several Kack " Crevalle, and the shark pictured. Great time. Plan on booking again when I am in town.

    Trip: Inshore Saltwater Run

  • ★★★★★
    Five stars warranted. Skilled and personable captain with nice boat and gear, plus the requisite “local knowledge.” Did a half day with trip tailored by the captain to match our specific inshore interests and to maximize fishing time. Had continuous action, and it was fun to see my daughter catch a nice mixed bag of fish species she hadn’t seen. Highly recommend Captain Matt.

    Trip: Inshore Bay and Flats Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    We loved our trip with Captain Neal! Him and his family have so much interesting history with the town and river. You can tell he’s a very experienced fisherman through his knowledge of the best fishing spots and the species. He’s friendly and has a great sense of humor. We caught a lot of black drum and red drum along with snook and spotted trout. It was a great time even in the off season. Highly suggest Neal for your quick morning trip!
