I honestly think land loss / coastal erosion should be considered as a major contributing factor.. The number of shallow spawning areas are diminishing exponentially.

If the entire commercial speckled trout harvest were divided up equally among Louisianas over 400 thousand recreational anglers, each sport fisherman would get less than one fish per person per year.

If our coastal areas remain unpolluted and coastal erosion is controlled, management will be the key.

In the last 10 years, recreational fishermen have harvested an average of 6,578,061 speckled trout from Louisiana waters annually. The best year for recreational landings was 2000 with a take of 9,615,942 specks.
