banks for its, population of brown trout. It is reputed to
have a brown trout population ranging from 2,000 to
4,000 trout per mile. It flows through hardwood trees,
open meadows and pastures.
Trout Run Creek is a part of one of the many
watersheds in what is referred to as the Blufflands
Watersheds. It is a part of an region called the Driftless
Area which takes in four states and over 600 spring
creeks.
The best fishing is between the little town of Saratoga
downstream to Bucksnort Dam and for about a mile and
a half below it. There have been a lot of stream
improvements that have taken place during the last few
years in this section of the creek. This has made a big
difference is the fishery.

levels are not extremely high. Hatch start in late Spring.

the fishing can be excellent all summer long.

months of the year to fish Trout Run Creek

winter months and the fishing can be quite good.
