Brown Trout
Brown trout fishing near Ellsworth, Pennsylvania, can be a rewarding pursuit for anglers willing to explore. While not as abundant as in some other regions of the state, the area offers some smaller streams and tributaries that hold wild and stocked browns. Spring and fall are the most productive times to fish, with spring offering the excitement of post-spawn feeding and fall presenting opportunities as the trout prepare for winter. Focus your efforts on smaller, less-pressured streams, using a stealthy approach. Dry flies and nymphs are effective, and a careful presentation is crucial. Be aware of private property boundaries and obtain permission where necessary. A helpful hint: Brown trout in this area can be quite wary, so use light line and make long casts. Also, pay attention to water temperature; browns prefer cooler water.
