Rainbow Trout
Rainbow trout fishing near Caro, Michigan, presents a unique challenge and reward. The Cass River, while not a premier trout stream, does hold some rainbow trout, primarily through stocking efforts. Focus your efforts on the stretches of the river that receive these stockings, typically upstream from Caro. Spring and fall are the prime times, coinciding with stocking schedules and cooler water temperatures. Rainbows often congregate in deeper pools and runs, especially near areas with good cover. Fly fishing with nymphs and streamers is a productive method, but spinners and small spoons can also be effective. Access can be limited in some areas, so be prepared for some walking. Check the Michigan DNR stocking reports to pinpoint the most recently stocked locations. A local tip: Be mindful of water temperature, as rainbows are sensitive to warm water. Fish early in the morning or late in the evening during the summer months. While the rainbows in the Cass River may not be trophy-sized, the chance to catch one of these colorful fish close to Caro is a definite draw.
