Brown Trout
While Marine City isn't typically known as a premier Brown Trout destination, the St. Clair River does offer a unique opportunity to target these fish. The DNR stocks brown trout in the river system, creating a seasonal fishery. The best time to target them is during the cooler months, primarily in the spring and fall, when water temperatures are more favorable. Look for brown trout near areas with current breaks, such as bridge pilings, docks, and submerged structures. Trolling small crankbaits or spoons can be effective, as can casting spinners or spoons from shore. A local tip is to focus your efforts near the mouths of tributaries that enter the St. Clair River, as these areas often attract trout. While not as abundant as other species, landing a brown trout in the St. Clair River is a rewarding experience. Remember to check the current Michigan fishing regulations for specific seasons and size limits.
