Seasonal Activity Chart
Brown Trout
Middletown, CT, offers some solid opportunities for targeting Brown Trout, primarily in the Salmon River and its tributaries. The Salmon River is known for its wild and holdover Brown Trout, offering a more challenging and rewarding fishing experience. Spring and fall are the best times to target these fish. Spring sees increased insect activity, leading to more active feeding, while fall brings pre-spawn aggression. Focus on areas with deeper pools, undercut banks, and rocky runs. Stealth is key, as Brown Trout are notoriously wary. Try using small spinners or spoons in the early morning or late evening. Nymphing with natural-looking patterns can also be effective. Access to the Salmon River is available at various points along Route 16. Be aware that certain sections may have specific regulations, so consult the CT DEEP fishing guide. The Browns in the Salmon River tend to be more selective than stocked trout, so presentation is crucial. Matching the hatch is a good strategy for success.
