Seasonal Activity Chart
Rainbow Trout
Rainbow trout in Lino Lakes are primarily found in lakes that are stocked by the Minnesota DNR. These stockings provide excellent opportunities, especially after the ice melts in spring and again in the fall when water temperatures cool. Check the DNR stocking reports online to find the most recently stocked lakes in the area. Powerbait, small spinners, and spoons are all effective for catching these stocked trout. Fly fishing with nymphs or streamers can also be productive, especially in the early morning or late evening. A local tip is to fish near the stocking locations initially, as the trout tend to stay in these areas for a while. Be aware that some lakes may have special regulations regarding trout fishing, so be sure to check the regulations before heading out.
