Brown Trout
While not as renowned as some other Michigan destinations, Blissfield offers some surprisingly good brown trout fishing opportunities in the River Raisin. This river, though better known for warm-water species, does hold a population of resident brown trout, particularly in its cooler, more spring-fed sections upstream from town. Spring and fall are the most productive times to target these fish. Spring brings increased insect activity and hungry trout, while fall sees the browns becoming more aggressive as they prepare for spawning. Try fishing small spinners, spoons, or nymphs in the deeper pools and runs. Access to the River Raisin can be found at various road crossings and public access points. Be mindful of water levels, as the river can fluctuate significantly after heavy rains. The brown trout in the Raisin tend to be on the smaller side, but they can provide a fun and challenging fishing experience. Be sure to practice catch and release to help maintain the population.
