Rainbow Trout
While not a traditional trout stream destination, Perry, Ohio, does offer limited opportunities for stocked rainbow trout. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) stocks trout in several locations in the spring, including some smaller lakes and ponds in the region. Check the ODNR website for stocking schedules and locations. These stockings provide a great opportunity for anglers, especially beginners, to catch rainbow trout. Spring, immediately following the stocking, is the best time to target these fish. PowerBait, worms, and small spinners are all effective baits. Fly fishing can also be productive, especially with nymphs and streamers. These stocked trout are typically relatively small, but they are still a fun and accessible way to enjoy trout fishing. A local tip: These stocked trout are often heavily pressured, so try fishing early in the morning or late in the evening to avoid crowds. Also, be sure to check the local regulations regarding trout fishing, as there may be specific size and bag limits.
