April 15 - It's the middle of April here in Michigan and it still feels like early spring. Despite the cool weather, fishing small creeks in Michigan can be productive. Very productive. And, as of late, crankbait fishing for trout has been one of my favorite ways to catch big Brown Trout. That, and spinners too.
This time of year, most of Michigan's trout streams are still closed due to Steelhead spawning, but this stream remains open and it is not uncommon to see Steelhead when chasing trout. When I do, I leave those on redds alone and target the ones in deep pools and runs. Fishing small creeks for Steelhead is a lot of fun. It's not a battle that I usually win, but it's fun none-the-less.
In the spring, you never know what you might tie into while fishing small creeks for trout. One thing is for sure though, Michigan Brown Trout fishing can be hot if you are able to find a secluded spot.
When spinner fishing for trout in Michigan, fishing small creeks for Trout, and finding big Brown Trout is always my main goal. Will I get it done today? Thank you for coming along to find out. .
