Brown Trout
While not as widely known as some other areas in Michigan, the waters near Muir can offer decent brown trout fishing for those willing to explore. The Looking Glass River, though smaller, holds a population of browns that can provide a fun challenge. Spring and fall are the best times to target them, as the water temperatures are cooler and the fish are more active. Try fishing with small spinners or nymphs in the deeper pools and runs. Access can be a bit limited in some areas, so be sure to check for public access points and respect private property. A good starting point is near some of the road crossings. The brown trout in this area tend to be on the smaller side, but they are wild and beautiful. Be aware of the regulations regarding trout fishing in Michigan, including size limits and gear restrictions, which are designed to protect this valuable resource.
