Brown Trout
While New Franklin, Ohio, is not typically known as a prime trout destination, determined anglers can find opportunities for brown trout within a reasonable drive. Several streams and rivers in Northeast Ohio, stocked by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR), hold populations of brown trout. While not directly in New Franklin, locations within an hour's drive, such as portions of the Chagrin River or the Clear Fork River near Belleville, are stocked annually. Spring and fall are the most productive times, as water temperatures are cooler and trout are more active. Small spinners, spoons, and live bait like worms or mealworms are effective choices. Be sure to check the ODNR's stocking schedule to find recently stocked locations. A local tip: Access to some of these streams can be limited, so research public access points and respect private property. While the brown trout in these streams may not be trophy-sized, they offer a rewarding fishing experience in a beautiful natural setting. Remember to have a valid Ohio fishing license and follow all regulations.
