No Work, Just Fish and Fun

Trout, Unlimited’s Appalachian Chapter would like to announce our first “Camping and Fishing” weekend at the McNabb Creek campground on the North River, at Tellico, from Friday, October 12 through Sunday, October 14.  This family-style event is open to members and non-members alike, and we would like to extend a special invitation to other Trout, Unlimted chapters as well.

This is a great opportunity for those who are interested in beginning in the sport as well.  There will be men and women there with various degrees of experience that will be glad to share their interest with others.

So come and join us for a relaxing weekend of fishing and camping!  More details will be forthcoming next month.

A small donation to cover the cost of the campground will be appreciated.

Directions to McNabb Creek Group Campground

In Tellico Plains (at the junction of Hwy 68 and 165), drive east on Hwy 165 (Tellico-Robbinsville road or Cherohalla Hwy).  At the east edge of town stay on Hwy 165; do not turn onto Hwy 360.  Continue on Hwy 165 for about 5 miles.  It parallels the Tellico River and crosses it once.  Just passed the Oosterneck pulloff, take Forest Service Road (FSR) 210 toward Bald River Falls and the Ranger Station.  Continue on FSR 210 for about 11 miles to North River Road (FSR 217).  It parallels Tellico River and crosses it once.  Continue on FSR 217 for about 2.5 miles.  It parallels North River.  You will cross a bridge over Hemlock Creek.  When the road turns right to cross the bridge over North River, turn left into McNabb Creek Group Campground.
