Brown Trout
Looking for brown trout near Old Town, Maine? The Penobscot River and its tributaries offer some solid opportunities. The Stillwater River, a key tributary, is stocked annually and holds some wild fish as well. Focus on areas with riffles, runs, and deep pools. Spring and fall are the best times to target browns, as they become more active with the cooler water temperatures. Streamers and nymphs are effective fly patterns, while spinners and small spoons work well for spin fishing. Access to the Stillwater River is readily available from various road crossings. The browns in this area can be quite selective, so experiment with different presentations until you find what works. Also, be aware of the regulations regarding catch-and-release areas. The Penobscot watershed offers a chance at some beautiful, wild-strain brown trout.
