Brown Trout
The Manistee River near Mesick is a renowned destination for brown trout fishing. Its cold, clear waters and abundant insect life create an ideal habitat for these prized gamefish. The best time to target browns is during the spring and fall, when they are most active. During the summer months, focus on fishing during the cooler early morning and late evening hours. Wading the river is a popular method, allowing you to access prime fishing spots. Look for deeper pools, runs, and undercut banks where browns like to hold. Fly fishing is very popular, with nymphs and streamers being effective choices. Spin anglers can also find success using small spinners and spoons. Access to the river is available at various points along M-37 and other county roads. Be sure to check the Michigan DNR fishing regulations for any specific restrictions or closures on the Manistee River.
