Trout Run is a river fishing spot in Maryland, managed by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources and located about 1.7 miles from the town of Schell. It is a hard fishing destination, so plan on a challenge rather than an easy outing. Summer is the most comfortable time to fish here. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Bayard, West Virginia, show July highs around 79°F with lows near 55°F, and September stays mild with highs around 72°F and the fewest wet days of the year. For more time outdoors, Lostland Run Trail is about 2.1 miles away. Backbone Mountain Trail lies roughly 9.4 miles off, and Howell Run Picnic Area, a campground, is about 9.9 miles away.
