Brown Trout
Chasing brown trout in the Buffalo, NY area offers a diverse angling experience. From the legendary tributaries of Lake Erie like Eighteenmile Creek and Cattaraugus Creek to the more urbanized Buffalo River, there's a setting to suit every angler's preference. Spring and fall are prime times, coinciding with spawning runs and cooler water temperatures. Browns in these waters are known for their aggressive takes and impressive size, with some fish exceeding 10 pounds. For the tributaries, access is often through county parks and designated fishing access points – be sure to check local regulations regarding permitted areas. A local tip: pay attention to water clarity after rain events. These streams can blow out quickly, but as they clear, the fishing can be exceptional. Consider using natural-looking presentations like egg imitations or small minnow patterns. For the Buffalo River, target areas near structure and industrial outflows, as these often hold fish. Be aware of potential hazards and follow all safety guidelines.
