WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Willow Creek is a cold, spring-fed tributary of the South Branch Root River in Fillmore County, southeastern Minnesota, flowing through the Driftless Area limestone bluff and valley landscape. The Minnesota DNR manages it as a stocked trout stream, placing brown trout fingerlings into the lower reaches. It is representative of the high-quality cold-water stream fisheries that make the Driftless Area a destination for trout anglers from across the upper Midwest. Spot Features: Willow Creek in Fillmore County is a cold-water stream in the Driftless Area of southeastern Minnesota, a tributary of the South Branch Root River near Preston. Minnesota DNR electrofishing surveys confirm brown trout, white sucker, and a community of native stream fish typical of this limestone spring-creek region. The stream has approximately 1.3 miles of public angling easements. Fishing pools and riffles with small spinners, flies, or live bait during the spring stocking period offers the most consistent action. Seasonality: Brown trout are stocked and present year-round in this Fillmore County stream, with the best angling in spring when fresh stockings arrive and again in fall when water cools and fish feed aggressively. White sucker and creek chub are native resident species present throughout the season. The stream cold, spring-fed character supports year-round trout fishing, though summer heat reduces surface activity during mid-day.
