Rainbow Trout
If you're looking for rainbow trout near Falls City, Oregon, your best bet is to explore the Little Luckiamute River and its tributaries. While not known for trophy-sized trout, these waters offer a classic, small-stream fishing experience. Stocking programs supplement the native population, providing consistent fishing opportunities. Spring and early summer are ideal, coinciding with insect hatches that bring the trout to the surface. Focus on riffles, runs, and pools where the current breaks and provides cover. A local secret: the stretch of the Little Luckiamute near the town of Valsetz is often less pressured and holds some surprisingly good trout. Consider using light tackle and small flies or spinners to entice these wary fish. Remember to check the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations for any specific restrictions or closures on these streams.
