Brown Trout
Brown trout fishing in Barnstable Town presents a unique challenge. While not as prolific as stocked rainbow trout, some of the deeper kettle ponds on Cape Cod, like Mashpee-Wakeby Pond, hold holdover populations of browns. These fish are often the result of past stocking efforts and have adapted to the warmer water conditions. The best time to target them is in the spring and fall when water temperatures are cooler. Early morning or late evening are also productive times. Try trolling small spoons or crankbaits along the deeper drop-offs. Fly fishing with streamers can also be effective. Brown trout in this area can be wary, so stealth is important. Be prepared to cover a lot of water and experiment with different presentations. Remember to check the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife regulations for any specific rules or stocking information.
