THE CELTIC SEA TROUT PROJECT

Catching sea trout in the sea

sea trout in the seaUpdated 20/03/12 The vast majority of sea trout caught by anglers are taken from rivers by fly, spinning or bait fishing. But we all know that sea trout spend a lot of their time feeding in coastal waters, so in principle it should be possible to catch them there by angling.
