Rainbow Trout
If you're chasing Rainbow Trout in the Middleville area, you're in for a treat. The cold, clear waters of the Thornapple River and its tributaries offer excellent habitat. Spring and fall are prime times, when the trout are most active, but winter fishing through the ice can also be rewarding. Focus on areas with good current and structure, like fallen logs or rocky runs. A local tip: access to the Thornapple can be found at several roadside parks and bridges, but be mindful of private property. Wading can be productive, but watch for slippery rocks. The Rainbows here are known for their vibrant colors and willingness to take a well-presented fly or small spinner. Also, be sure to check the Michigan DNR fishing regulations for specific size and creel limits on the Thornapple River.
