Pensacola Speckled Trout and Redfish The speckled trout, redfish, bull redfish and Spanish mackerel fishing in Pensacola has been outstanding. Redfish University anglers can expect 25-40 speckled trout per morning and 10-15 redfish in the 18-30″ range. For anglers looking for large redfish, the beach and shallow flats near the Gulf are holding good numbers of 10-20# bull redfish that can be taken on artificial baits and fly. The Spanish are everywhere and can be taken by trolling, casting and even fly. See ya soon....
