Brown Trout
Brown trout fishing near Malvern, PA, can be rewarding in the streams and creeks that meander through Chester County. Valley Creek, a designated Pennsylvania Scenic River, is a prime example, offering both stocked and holdover brown trout. Spring and fall are the prime times, coinciding with stocking and cooler water temperatures. Nymphing is a productive technique, especially in the deeper pools and runs. A local tip: Pay attention to water levels, as Valley Creek can become murky after heavy rains. Also, be sure to check the latest stocking schedules from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission. The brown trout in Valley Creek and similar streams can be quite wary, so stealth and accurate casts are essential. Consider using fluorocarbon leaders for added invisibility. Respect private property and obtain permission where necessary.
