Brown Trout
While not as abundant as rainbow trout, brown trout can be found in the waters surrounding Bellevue, offering a more challenging and rewarding fishing experience. The Snoqualmie River system, accessible within a short drive from Bellevue, holds a population of wild brown trout. These fish are often wary and require a stealthy approach. Fly fishing is a popular method, using patterns that imitate local insects. Spring and fall are generally considered the best times to target browns, coinciding with insect hatches and spawning runs. Access to the Snoqualmie can be found at various points along its course, but be prepared for some walking to reach prime fishing spots. Remember to check the specific regulations for the Snoqualmie River, as some sections may have catch-and-release restrictions or gear limitations. Landing a brown trout in this area is a testament to patience and skill.
