Annual Brook Trout Restoration and Monitoring Results For the Upper Tellico River Tributaries, August 18, 2007 Jim Herrig Fisheries Biologist Cherokee National Forest The Cherokee National Forest in cooperation with Trout Unlimited and the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) have implemented a systematic approach for the brook trout restoration and monitoring in the Tellico River watershed. Since the early 1980’s these partners have recognized the need to protect the brook trout populations in the Tellico area from competing, non-native trout species. 2007 marks the 19th consecutive year of partnership efforts in this watershed. Initial rotenone treatments isolated the brook trout from competing rainbow trout; subsequent annual electrofishing surveys have been effective in maintaining the brook trout populations and in documenting the success of the program. Finally, instream work has improved brook trout habitat. |

The Elk River is West Virginia’s premier trout stream among many great streams. What makes the Elk exceptionally is its geology. The Elk’s tributaries flow west off of Cheat Mountain and eventually flow into the Ohio. The Slaty Fork is the main flow, that is until it disappears into the side of a cliff! Eight miles below that cliff are a number of springs called “Elk Springs”—the official start of the Elk. |
