Brown Trout
While Gibraltar isn't traditionally known as a brown trout destination, the occasional brown trout can be found in the Detroit River, particularly during the colder months. These fish likely migrate from Lake Erie. Targeting them specifically can be challenging, but persistence can pay off. The best time to try is late fall through early spring when water temperatures are cooler. Try trolling small crankbaits or spoons along the edges of the shipping channel. A local tip: focus on areas where tributaries enter the Detroit River, as these can attract brown trout. Be aware that the Detroit River is a large and complex system, and targeting brown trout requires patience and a willingness to experiment. While not a guarantee, the chance of landing a brown trout in this urban waterway adds an element of surprise to any fishing trip.
