Brown Trout
Targeting brown trout near Quincy, MA, requires a bit of a drive, as the immediate area isn't known for its trout streams. However, the nearby Neponset River, particularly sections upstream towards Canton and Norwood, holds some stocked brown trout and even a few holdovers. Spring and fall are the best times to fish, with cooler water temperatures triggering increased activity. Focus on deeper pools, undercut banks, and areas near riffles. Small spinners, spoons, and live worms are effective baits. Fly anglers can have success with nymphs and streamers. Access along the Neponset varies; some areas are easily accessible from roadways, while others require a bit of walking. Be aware of private property and respect posted signs. A local tip: check the MassWildlife trout stocking report before you go to see when and where the river was last stocked, and plan your trip accordingly. Also, water levels can fluctuate rapidly after rain, so be sure to check conditions before heading out.
