Rainbow Trout
Rainbow trout in Linn Grove, Iowa? You bet! While not a naturally occurring species in the area, the Iowa DNR stocks trout in several locations within a reasonable driving distance. Although not directly in Linn Grove, nearby stocked streams like the one at Schaller offer a unique angling experience. These trout are typically stocked in the spring and fall, providing excellent opportunities for anglers of all skill levels. Small spinners, spoons, and live bait like worms or corn are effective choices. Access is generally good, with parking areas and trails near the stocked locations. Be sure to check the Iowa DNR website for stocking schedules and regulations before you go. Remember that these are often hatchery-raised fish, so they may be less wary than wild trout.
