Fishing the Little T

Had a great 3 day stretch of guiding some good fly fishermen in North Carolina and Georgia. We had a great time and caught lots of fish. Always good to open up new waters for our guide service destinations. We look forward to getting back on those waters soon...very soon!

North Carolina Fishing

Nice Brown Trout by a young angler on the Tuck today. He also stuck a few smallies on the Little T yesterday. Fishing in Georgia tomorrow!

New Waters

OK, time has come. We are now offering guided smallmouth fishing trips to the Little Tennessee and the Tuckasegee Rivers in Western North Carolina. We've been working on bringing these into the mix for a month or so now. We're excited about it, and we know that our smallie fishing clients will also enjoy the great fishing that these rivers are known for. Give Steve a call and book your time on these waters while the smallie bite is HOT!
Rundown of the waters that we currently guide on:
Hiwassee
Tellico
North River
Sycamore Creek
Little Tennessee
Tuckasegee
Toccoa
Clinch
Holston
We are in the process of adding more waters as we speak. We'll keep you posted as other venues become available. Gonna be a great year!

Fishing Report

Had several guided fishing trips over the last week. Sulphurs popping each and every day. Some days the fish were rising to dries and others they were only wanting the swung emergers. Isonychia dry flies are also becoming more important in the evenings. River is still holding lots of hungry fish. Water temps are perfect at 55 degrees. Rain is falling right now and that can only improve the conditions.
Had a nice surprise the other day while finishing up a float. Saw this guy hanging out and enjoying the scenery. Beautiful juvenile bald eagle perched in the same dead tree snag that I have seen an osprey in on several occasions. Must be a prime fishing spot for those guys. Come to think of it, I've done pretty good in that stretch of water myself. Oh well, plenty of fish in there for all three of us I guess. I certainly don't mind sharing.

New Rig

Got a new raft rig set-up this week. These boats are perfect for the Hi and for floating the skinny smallmouth waters that I guide on. I have been scouting some new smallie waters and can't wait to put this boat to work on them. The new waters have been fishing great and are almost ready to be added to the menu of offerings. Stay tuned!
