The water is still rather high after all the wet weather we’ve seen this weekend, but the weather is great. There wasn’t much fishing to be done yesterday so we drove over to lower Abrams Creek to just get outside and take a hike. We both speculated that we could row the drift boat down […]
Another Good Smoky Mountain Brown Trout
It looks like John Coley has some competition. John caught the best brown trout we’ve guided a fly fisher to in the Smokies last week. Today Charity was the guide and Julie Wattenbarger caught a superb fish on a Prince Nymph on the Oconaluftee River well upstream of Smokemont Campground. This fish was also about […]
More Fall Fishing Pictures from the Smoky Mountains
Charity and I have had a chance to download a few more photos off of our cameras and thought we’d share them along with a fishing update. It’s a wet day today, but it’s been rather light so far and we’re not anticipating any substantial rise in stream levels. At this point the biggest issue […]
Best Smokies Trout of the Year
Last week I took John Coley out for a day of fly fishing in the Smoky Mountains. John was about as enthusiastic as fly fishers get and I was eager to get him on the water since fish have been rising like crazy. Seriously, this fall has fished like spring as far as fish rising […]

Fall Weather Has Been Cool But the Fishing Is Hot
Fall fishing is off to a great start! Dry fly fishing in the Smoky Mountains has been nothing short of superb. Tailwater opportunities aren’t as abundant as they were a few months ago, but there are still some good chances to get out on the big rivers in East Tennessee and Western North Carolina. Stream […]
