    (6 Hour Trip)

    Best trip ever!

    Don and Andrea are extremely knowledgable and funny! The boat is nice, clean and rides smoothly! It did not take long for us to hook some giant kings and laughters are all over the boat. I am really impress d how Dan and Andrea work together to manage the multiple trolling setup. Personally, I own a 17 feet walleye boat and i also like fluke fishing on charter boat. This is the best experience i had.

    Great Family trip!

    We had a great family trip out for the end of summer season! They were very knowledgable for the fishing season and we caught a fair share better average total fish than the other boats. The were happy to share stories and answer our questions.

    Fishing with Ryan

    Great trip! We were catching fish within minutes on getting on the boat. The gear was nice, the boat was clean and comfortable. It’s obvious Ryan really cares about his equipment and clients. Highly recommend using him if your in the finger lakes region.

    Bigger and Better

    Never thought I would top my personal best but I think I did on our 3rd trip with Personal Best Sport Fishing. He didn’t just drive the boat around when the bite slowed. He was able to do some change ups to keep the action going. They really worked hard to get fish in the boat.

About Brown Trout fishing

Size
2 to 40 lbs
Food Value
Good
Game Quality
Excellent

Despite its name, the Brown Trout is actually a Salmonid fish that is related to the Atlantic Salmon. Native to Europe and Asia, it has been widely introduced across the United States, Canada, New Zealand, and Africa thanks to its exceptional game properties.

 

You would be forgiven for mistaking a Brown Trout when you hear it in conversation: it has a wide variety of names in the United Kingdom, such as Sewin (in Wales), Finnock (in Scotland), Peal (in the southwest of England), Mort (in the northwest of England), and White Trout (in Ireland). Whatever you call it, however, it will test your angling skills - this is one of the hardest Trout to catch, whichever angling method you are using.

How big

Brown Trout are medium-sized fish and can grow to over 44 lbs (20 kg) and up to 39 in (100 cm) long in some places (although this is very rare). However, it is common for mature Brown Trout found in smaller rivers to weigh in at about 2.2 lbs (1kg) or even less.

When & Where
There are two main types of Brown Trout: the Salmo trutta morpha fario, which exclusively inhabits freshwater areas, and the Salmo trutta morpha trutta, also known as the Sea Trout, which spends most of its life in the ocean, only returning to freshwater to spawn.

The Brown Trout is native to Europe and some parts of Asia, and has been widely introduced to other areas worldwide. Now, it can be found across the United States, in the Great Lakes in Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Illinois, Minnesota, ​and New York in the United States, and Ontario, in Canada. Apart from being found in the Great Lakes, Brown Trout can be caught in the USA from the Appalachians up to the north of Georgia, as well as many other states, including Montana, Colorado, and many more areas.

How to catch

Brown Trout have been testing the skills of anglers for many centuries, and were mentioned in literature as early as 1496, when they were referred to as a ‘right dainty fish’ in the Treatise of Fishing with an Angle. They are a popular target for fly fishermen and are also fun to catch on light spinning tackle, with spoons, spinners, plugs, and jerkbaits proving to be effective lures. These fish are easily spooked and require careful casting.

Good to eat?

Very, although they are also commonly caught and released.
