Rainbow Trout
While Lomira isn't exactly a rainbow trout mecca, there are a few opportunities to target these fish within a reasonable drive. The Milwaukee River and its tributaries, particularly those further upstream, are stocked with rainbow trout. These streams offer classic trout fishing scenarios: riffles, runs, and pools. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target rainbows, as water temperatures are cooler and the fish are more active. A small spinner or a well-presented fly can be effective. Accessing these streams often requires some walking, but the rewards can be worth the effort. Be sure to check the Wisconsin DNR trout regulations for specific stream classifications and any gear restrictions. Also, remember to practice catch and release to help sustain the population.
