Rainbow Trout
While Decatur isn't renowned as a trout mecca, some smaller streams and rivers in the surrounding area are stocked with Rainbow Trout, offering a unique fishing opportunity. These are typically smaller, colder-water streams that can support trout during cooler months. Spring and fall are the ideal times to target these fish, immediately following stocking. Small spinners, worms, and trout flies are effective baits. Keep in mind that these are often put-and-take fisheries, so the trout may not be as wary as wild fish. Before heading out, check with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) for stocking schedules and regulations. Many of these streams run through private land, so be sure to obtain permission before fishing. The Black River, a bit north of Decatur, is a possibility to explore for stocked trout. The trout in these smaller streams tend to be smaller in size, but still offer a fun fishing experience.
