What is the success of fishing for Trout in the rain?

I have always done good fishing in the rain, for trout and just about everything else. If the stream is in good shape and raining you should be able to catch some, but if the creek is blown out, unwadable, and chocolate milk the the fishing will probably be very poor regardless if it's raining or not.

I hate it when people tell me, "Fishing is better in the rain." No it's not. If the water level is low and clear, and a light rain starts, it may be good for a few minutes.

Go anyways. Just getting out of the house for the weekend is a vacation in itself. You can fish muddy water, but not if it's flowing to fast. Try hitting a lake around that area until conditions are more favorable to you or fish slower water.

Have had fish turn on many times right when it starts. The creek we hit last year on the first day of trout was high and muddy. It ended up being pretty much a total downpour, but I caught 5 fish in the first 20 minutes using small redworm style jigs, then went and sat in the truck while my friends got wet

ive  done pretty good in the rain for the most part. try throwing blue fox vibrax spinners if you think the water is too high and muddy
