Brown Trout
While not as widely known as some other Michigan destinations, Onaway offers some unique opportunities for targeting brown trout. The key is to focus on the smaller, colder rivers and streams that flow into the larger lakes in the area. The Rainy River, for example, is stocked with brown trout and can provide some exciting fishing. Spring and fall are the best times to target these fish, as they become more active in cooler water temperatures. Early morning and late evening are prime times. A practical tip is to use a stealthy approach and light tackle when fishing these smaller streams. Brown trout can be easily spooked. Also, be mindful of water levels, as these streams can fluctuate quickly after rain events. The brown trout in this region are known for their beautiful coloration and feisty nature, making them a rewarding catch for any angler.
