Brown Trout
While not as abundant as rainbow trout, brown trout fishing near Snohomish, WA, offers a unique and rewarding challenge. The Skykomish River, a tributary of the Snohomish, is a primary destination for those seeking browns. These fish tend to prefer cooler, well-oxygenated waters, so focus on areas with riffles, runs, and deep pools. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target them, as they become more active during these periods. Fly fishing with nymphs and streamers is a popular technique, but spinners and small spoons can also be effective. A helpful hint: Browns can be wary, so use stealth and make long casts to avoid spooking them. Access to the Skykomish River is available at various points along Highway 2, but be mindful of private property and respect posted signs. Keep in mind that the Skykomish can experience significant fluctuations in water levels, so check conditions before heading out. The browns in this area are known for their beautiful coloration and feisty fight.
