Rainbow Trout
While Cabery, Illinois, isn't exactly known as a trout mecca, dedicated anglers can find opportunities for rainbow trout within a reasonable drive. Focus your efforts on nearby stocked ponds or smaller streams that receive trout stockings from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. Check the IDNR website for stocking schedules and locations. Spring and fall are the best times to target these stocked trout, as the water temperatures are cooler and the fish are more active. A small spinner or spoon can be deadly, especially when retrieved with a steady retrieve. Fly fishing with nymphs or small streamers can also be effective. Be aware that the stocked trout tend to be relatively small, but they can still provide some fun action. A local tip: some of the smaller creeks are heavily wooded, so be prepared to do some bushwhacking to reach the best fishing spots. Also, be sure to check regulations regarding size and creel limits.
