ROUGH RIDGE CREEK – MARCH 2007 STREAM OF THE MONTH
Wednesday, 21 March 2007
ImageAbstract:  Rough Ridge Creek is a tributary stream to the Tellico River in the Cherokee National Forest (Big Junction Quad Map). It is easy to access from Forest Service trail 210G; brook trout become more abundant about a mile upstream.  There are no significant waterfalls but rhododendron does get thick in the upper reach. There are about 2 miles of fishable water with nice places to camp. The trail follows a gentle grade close beside the stream.

Tennessee Overhill Fishing Report - Early Spring 2007
Saturday, 03 March 2007
I consider the spring trout fishing season to begin in the Southeast round late February or early March with the first warm days and the first caddis of the year. It ends around Memorial day with the onset of predictable weather, consistent flows, Isonychias and summertime. The spring season of 2007 is here now. There is something special about spring season. I guess it has to do with the fact that most of us haven't been out much for few months and are itching to cast an angle. As a guide, it means that better meals and new tires are just around the corner. Spring certainly has its challenges. Due mainly to uncertainties. Uncertain temperatures, wind, rain, generation schedules. Murky water, low water, high water. With all the uncertainties that spring has, it does hold two truths that I know to be certain. All of our monster trout are caught in the spring, and there is a hot smoked chicken just around the next bend.
