Rainbow Trout
If you're looking to hook into some Rainbow Trout near Dennison, Minnesota, the Cannon River and its tributaries are your best bet. What makes this area special is the combination of cold, clear water and active stocking programs. Spring and fall are prime times, with the trout being most active in the cooler water temperatures. Early morning or late evening are generally the most productive times of day. A local tip: try fishing the deeper pools and runs with small spinners or nymphs. Access to the Cannon River is relatively easy via public access points along Highway 19. Be mindful of private property and always obtain the necessary licenses and permits before heading out. The Rainbows here typically range from 10-16 inches, but larger holdovers are always a possibility, especially in the deeper sections of the river.
