Brown Trout
Finding Brown Trout near Ubly, Michigan requires venturing towards the eastern side of the state, specifically the streams and rivers that feed into Lake Huron. While not directly in Ubly, the Au Sable River system, about an hour's drive away, is renowned for its brown trout fishing. The stretch below Mio Dam is a particularly popular destination. Spring and fall are the prime times to target browns, with the fall spawning run bringing larger fish upstream. Focus on deeper pools, undercut banks, and areas with woody debris. A local tip: The Au Sable is a popular river, so consider fishing during the weekdays to avoid crowds. Also, be prepared for wading, as much of the river is best fished on foot. While the Au Sable is the premier destination, smaller tributaries closer to Ubly might hold smaller populations of browns; these require more exploration and a sense of adventure. Brown trout in the Au Sable can reach impressive sizes, with fish over 20 inches being a realistic possibility.
