Those would be good bait to start off trying. Try fishing along the channel dropoffs and the points. If the boats you see stay there very long, they are probably catching something.

If you have a cast net, catch some live bait. There should be "schools" of them swimming around.

In the last 3 days the salinity has really come up, so the Speckled trout should be in the area.
