Brown Trout
While Jackson Center, Ohio, isn't exactly known as a trout mecca, a determined angler can find some brown trout within a reasonable drive. The Mad River, located roughly an hour east, is a designated trout stream and receives regular stockings of brown trout. Spring and fall are the most productive times to fish, as water temperatures are cooler and trout are more active. Focus on areas with deeper pools, undercut banks, and riffles. Fly fishing is popular, but spin anglers can also have success with small spinners and spoons. A good access point is near Urbana, where you'll find public access areas along the river. Remember to check the ODNR's stocking schedule before you go, as this will give you an idea of when and where trout have been recently released. Also, be aware that the Mad River can be subject to fluctuating water levels, so check the streamflow before heading out.
