Rainbow Trout
Rainbow trout fishing near Robbinsdale requires a bit of exploration, as they aren't as widespread as other species. Your best bet will be to target the smaller, stocked streams that feed into the larger rivers in the region. The Minnesota DNR often stocks these streams in the spring and fall, providing a good opportunity for anglers to catch rainbows. Focus your efforts on areas with good cover, such as fallen trees, undercut banks, and riffles. Early spring, immediately after stocking, is a popular time, but fishing can remain productive throughout the summer if you target cooler, shaded areas. A key to success is using small lures or flies that imitate the trout's natural food sources. Public access points are often marked, but be respectful of private property and obtain permission if necessary. Remember to check the latest stocking reports from the DNR to find out which streams have been recently stocked.
