Brown Trout
Similar to rainbows, brown trout in the Albion area are primarily supported by stocking efforts in the Kalamazoo River and select tributaries. Brown trout are less frequently stocked than rainbows, so finding them requires a bit more effort and knowledge of the local waterways. Your best bet is to consult the Michigan DNR stocking reports and target areas known for holding trout year-round. Fall is an excellent time to target browns as they become more active in preparation for spawning. Concentrate your efforts in deeper pools and areas with woody debris, as browns tend to be more reclusive than rainbows. Try using crankbaits, larger spinners, or even streamers to entice a strike. Brown trout in this area can range from 12-18 inches, offering a more substantial fight than the stocked rainbows. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain the fishery.
