Rainbow Trout
For rainbow trout near Auburn Hills, Michigan, you'll need to venture a bit outside the immediate area. The Clinton River and its tributaries receive stockings of rainbow trout, providing some opportunities for anglers. Spring and fall are the prime times, coinciding with stocking events and cooler water temperatures. Focus your efforts on sections of the river with deeper pools, riffles, and runs. Fly fishing with nymphs or small streamers can be productive, as can using small spinners, spoons, or live bait. A helpful hint: Pay attention to water clarity, as rainbows can be line-shy in clear water. Use lighter line and smaller lures in these conditions. Also, check the Michigan DNR website for stocking information to pinpoint recently stocked locations. The rainbow trout in this region are typically of moderate size, but they offer a good fight and are a welcome addition to any angler's catch. Be sure to consult the current Michigan Fishing Guide for regulations specific to the Clinton River.
