Brown Trout
If you're chasing brown trout near Northglenn, Colorado, your best bet is to head to the nearby South Platte River. While not directly *in* Northglenn, it's a short drive and offers the best brown trout fishing in the area. The fall months, particularly September and October, are prime time as the browns become more active during their spawning run. Spring can also be productive after the runoff subsides. Access is relatively easy at various points along the river, but be mindful of private property. Consider fishing near the Chatfield State Park area or further upstream towards Deckers for the most consistent action. Nymphing with stonefly or mayfly patterns is generally effective, as is throwing small streamers in the deeper pools. Remember that flows can fluctuate, so check river conditions before you go. The browns here aren't typically huge, but they are plentiful and feisty.
