Hiwassee River – The river has fished well this week. Low flows for a few more weeks. We are wading the upper river and floating the lower. Good catch rates with some nice holdovers in the quality zone. Some mayflies and caddis are hatching. Mornings are mix of streamers, nymphs, and soft hackles with afternoons reserved for dry flies and dry dropper.

“Extreme Makeover: Definite Do’s & Don’ts When Fishing For Trout in Smoky Mountain Streams”
Some know this month’s presenter as “Spider Man” as he is a very accomplished fly tier. Dave Carson spoke to our group the last two years, and made such an impact, that he keeps being asked back, In Spite of Popular Demand! Just Joking! Really, Dave Carson, was a real hit among our members the last two years and promises to be so again this year. At least that is what he told me! He guides in the Smoky Mountains, assisting his clients in catching Brook, Rainbow, and Brown Trout. His guiding service is called “On The Fly” Guide Service. Since the trout found in these waters are so elusive, Dave has agreed to provide us with information that will help up our chances in catching these very wary and elusive trout. I have also encouraged him to inform us as to his approach to guiding and how we might arrange for a trip if we so wish. He is an entertaining speaker and an interesting story teller. We look forward to having Dave back with us again this year. Snacks and drinks will be provided. |

We are experiencing some of the best overall spring fly fishing that we have in over two years in our Tn./Ga. area. Cold winter temperatures and adequate moisture have all of the streams we fish in good shape. The near term forecast is for a typical spring weather pattern which includes weekly showers to add to our water table. Bring your waders and jacket and let’s go trout fishing. |
