Seasonal Activity Chart
Brown Trout
While Toledo, Washington, isn't typically known as a brown trout hotspot, the Cowlitz River and some of its tributaries do support a population of these fish. The Cowlitz River is primarily known for its salmon and steelhead runs, but resident brown trout can be found, particularly in the cooler, upper reaches of the river and its tributaries. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target them, coinciding with insect hatches and cooler water temperatures. Fly fishing with nymphs and dry flies can be effective, as can spin fishing with small spinners and spoons. A local tip is to focus your efforts in areas with good cover, such as undercut banks and overhanging vegetation. Also, be aware of the seasonal closures on certain sections of the river to protect spawning salmon and steelhead. Check the WDFW regulations for specific details.
