Michigan Trout Fishing: There’s an App for That!

Michigan DNR launches new app designed to help you get the big one!

Fishing is a way to get away from it all, relax, unwind, and unplug.

However, if you are more of a results-oriented person you should definitely check out this new app from Michigan's Department of Natural Resources (DNR).

Trout Trails is a comprehensive map featuring fisheries biologist-verified trout waters that often are lesser known, but considered outstanding destination points.

For each of these 129 sites, extensive information is listed including trout species available, regulations, presence of stocked or naturally reproducing fish, driving directions (with a link to Google maps), area lodging, restaurants, guide services and noteworthy information (such as presence of fast water, canoe/kayak/tube accessibility, best times to fish, etc.).

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is committed to the conservation, protection, management, use and enjoyment of the state’s natural and cultural resources for current and future generations. For more information, go to www.michigan.gov/dnr.
