Brown Trout
Venturing for brown trout near Wardsville, Missouri, requires a bit of a drive, as the immediate area isn't prime brown trout habitat. However, the Roubidoux Creek near Waynesville (about an hour and a half away) is a viable option. This spring-fed creek maintains cold, clear water that supports a population of stocked and holdover brown trout. Spring and fall are ideal times to fish, with cooler water temperatures and less angling pressure. Focus on deeper pools and runs, using small nymphs, streamers, or dry flies. Wading is the most common method of fishing, so be sure to wear appropriate footwear. Access to Roubidoux Creek is available through several public access points, but be prepared for some hiking to reach the more secluded areas. Be sure to check the Missouri Department of Conservation regulations for specific size and creel limits on brown trout in Roubidoux Creek.
