Spent some time in Louisiana and fished for the Speckled Sea Trout a lot (Calcasieu). Still, I am Utah born, Intermountain raised, so I know my trout species.
I suspect they are called "trout" because they resemble a washed out sea run Brown Trout so much, and their size is more like a trout, until you look into their mouth. Some awesome vampire teeth, a yellow
, and a fun fish to catch.
I will defer to my wife on this one, and she insist that they do not taste anything like a trout, or any Salmonid., They taste more like fresh water white fleshed warm water species, but, at least in my opinion, a lot better.
