Brown Trout
While Au Gres isn't traditionally known as a brown trout hotspot, the Au Gres River and its access to Saginaw Bay do offer limited opportunities for anglers seeking this species. Brown trout, though not abundant, can be found migrating up the river, particularly during the spring and fall spawning runs. Focus your efforts near deeper pools, log jams, and areas with current breaks. A local tactic involves using small spinners or streamers that mimic the river's forage fish. Access can be limited in some areas, so explore the public access points along the river. Be mindful of water temperature and clarity, as these factors can significantly impact trout activity. While not a guaranteed catch, the chance of hooking a brown trout adds an element of surprise to your Au Gres fishing adventures. Remember to check the Michigan DNR fishing regulations for specific rules and seasons.
