Rainbow Trout
While Lake Angelus in Michigan is better known for its largemouth bass, stocking efforts by the DNR occasionally introduce Rainbow Trout. These stockings are usually done in the spring or fall. To target these trout, focus on the deeper sections of the lake, especially near drop-offs and areas with cooler water temperatures. Trolling with small spoons or spinners can be effective, as can still-fishing with live bait like worms or powerbait near the bottom. Check the Michigan DNR stocking reports to see if and when Lake Angelus has been recently stocked with trout. A local tip is that rainbow trout in Lake Angelus tend to be opportunistic feeders. Varying your presentation and experimenting with different lures and baits is key to finding what they're biting on. The lake's clear water also means that using lighter line and fluorocarbon leaders can improve your chances of success. Rainbows are not consistently present, so success can vary greatly.
