Seasonal Activity Chart
Rainbow Trout
For Rainbow Trout near Beaverville, Illinois, your best bet is to look to the Iroquois River, which receives seasonal stockings. While not a wild trout fishery, the freshly stocked rainbows offer a great opportunity, especially for beginner anglers. The best time to target them is in the spring and fall, shortly after stocking. Look for them in deeper pools and runs, especially near areas with current breaks. Simple techniques like fishing with worms, corn, or PowerBait on a light wire hook can be very effective. Small spinners and spoons can also produce strikes. Check the Illinois Department of Natural Resources website for stocking schedules and locations along the Iroquois River. Public access points are available along the river, but be aware that the water can be shallow in some areas. Keep an eye out for recent stocking locations, as these areas will typically hold the highest concentrations of trout.
