BALD RIVER - FEBRUARY 2007 STREAM OF THE MONTH
Thursday, 22 February 2007
Abstract:  Bald River is a tributary stream to the Tellico River in the Cherokee National Forest (Bald River Falls and Big Junction Quad Maps). It is easy to access from Forest Service trail 88 through Bald River Gorge Wilderness or along Forest Service Road 126 south of the Wilderness or by hiking up Forest Service Trails 180 and 2. Above the Brookshire Creek confluence, you will be in a large cove with the trail gradually climbing the valley wall and leaving the stream.  The stream has only southern strain brook trout.   There are about 2.5 miles of fishable water with no steep, cascades or waterfalls. Plan to camp or leave yourself plenty of time to get out. It’s a long hike but the trail is not steep or rough.

BROOKSHIRE CREEK - JANUARY 2007 STREAM OF THE MONTH
Tuesday, 09 January 2007
ImageAbstract:  Brookshire Creek is a tributary stream to Bald River in the Cherokee National Forest (Bald River Falls and Unaka Quad Maps). It is easy to access from Forest Service trail 180 that starts where FS Road 126 first comes down to the Bald River. Once you get to Brookshire Creek, you will be in large, open valley or cove with excellent camping sites amid the large poplars.  The stream has only brook trout in it and they are plentiful.   There are about 3 miles of fishable water with no steep, cascades or waterfalls. Getting back to your vehicle will take some time because of the distance but the trail is an old railroad grade that has a gentle 3% slope almost the whole length.

HENDERSON BRANCH - DECEMBER 2006 STREAM OF THE MONTH
Tuesday, 09 January 2007

ImageAbstract:  Henderson Branch is a tributary stream to Bald River in the Cherokee National Forest (Bald River Falls Quad Map). It is easy to access at the lower end with FSR 126 paralleling the stream for about 2 miles.  Getting back to your starting point on FSR 126 can be a little difficult because of the steep road bank and thick rhododendron along the stream.  There are no major waterfalls on this stream but a concrete dam serves as a barrier to separate the brook trout from the rainbow and brown trout.  The stream recently underwent some rehabilitation which involved trimming the thick rhododendron to improve the stream flow and angler access.
