Brown trout are one of the most challenging fish in freshwater: spooky, selective, and quick to reject anything that doesn’t feel or smell exactly right. I developed Brown Town specifically to give you an edge on browns, using a premium fish attractant formula that matches the forage profile brown trout key on in California’s high-elevation lakes and reservoirs. Apply it to flies, soft baits, or bait and you’ll notice fish committing faster and holding longer. The difference between a fish that follows and a fish that bites. If browns are your target, Brown Town belongs in your kit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Brown Town Scent?
Brown Town Scent is a minnow-based fishing scent designed by guide Bryan Roccucci. Its minnow base is built to match pond smelt, the primary forage for trout in lakes like Almanor. Anglers smear it on lures and soft baits to make presentations look and smell like natural smelt.
Where and for what is Brown Town Scent used?
Guides run Brown Town Scent at Lake Almanor when trout are keyed on pond smelt. The minnow base matches that forage, putting scent in the water for smelt-eating trout to follow. It is a match-the-hatch scent for trout and salmon that are feeding on baitfish.
What do I put Brown Town Scent on?
Load Brown Town Scent onto spoons and Junior Optimizers for high-speed trolling to draw more aggressive strikes, or scent up Trix Minnows and grubs for slow-troll presentations. On either program the minnow base reinforces a baitfish look, so the whole spread smells like pond smelt.
What is the go-to slow-troll setup with Brown Town Scent?
At Almanor the go-to slow program is a cut-down Trix Minnow dosed with Brown Town Scent, run around 1.2 mph and worked down roughly 32 to 45 feet wherever fish show on the sonar. The scent keeps the soft plastic reading like a live smelt.
What bait pairs best with Brown Town Scent?
Pair Brown Town Scent with Trix Minnows. The minnow-based scent and the thin baitfish profile reinforce each other, so a scented Trix Minnow looks and smells like the pond smelt trout are chasing. It is the slow-troll combination guides lean on at Lake Almanor.
