Steelhead
Steelhead, the migratory rainbow trout, offer a unique fishing opportunity for Wisconsin anglers. While Stevens Point itself doesn't have direct access to steelhead runs, rivers flowing into Lake Michigan, such as the nearby Wisconsin River, can see runs of these fish. The best time to target steelhead is during the spring and fall as they migrate upstream to spawn. Focus your efforts on areas with current breaks, such as behind rocks or near fallen trees. Natural presentations like egg patterns and nymphs are effective, but don't overlook small spoons and spinners. Access points along the Wisconsin River are available, but be prepared for potentially crowded conditions during peak runs. Keep an eye on water levels and clarity, as these factors can significantly impact steelhead activity. Remember to check the Wisconsin DNR regulations for specific rules regarding steelhead fishing in the area.
