Brown Trout
Brown Trout fishing near Cass City requires a bit of a drive, as the local rivers aren't ideally suited for them. You'll need to head towards the Au Sable River system or some of the other rivers further north and east that are stocked with trout. The spring and fall are the best times to target browns, as they become more active during these cooler periods. Consider wading or floating sections of the Au Sable known for its trout fishing. Streamers, nymphs, and dry flies can all be effective, depending on the time of year and water conditions. A local tip: pay attention to insect hatches and try to match your fly accordingly. Brown trout in this region can be quite wary, so stealth and a careful presentation are key. Check the Michigan DNR stocking reports to find the most recently stocked locations for the best chance of success.
