Tennessee Overhill Fishing Report - May 27,2009 Print E-mail
Thursday, 04 June 2009

It is with great pleasure that I can report all of our streams and rivers in north Georgia and east Tennessee have plenty of water and are fishing well. This should be the trend throughout summer. It also looks like the Cumberland will be returning to fishable levels very soon. Here is a snapshot of each of our waters. Call or email to book June and July trips.

Hiwassee River - Good flows and cold water. We are drifting the upper river daily from the powerhouse to Reliance. Trips start at 10:00 a.m. Sulfurs are hatching now. We are catching some on dry flies in the afternoons.

Toccoa River - We are able to drift here a few times a week. Weekend flows are the best. Good average size fish coming from deep and some on dries.

Tellico River - We are mainly chasing the wild fish and brook trout in the tributaries now. Water levels are great. Mostly dry fly fishing on the warmer days.

Holston River - We have enjoyed a great spring here with lots of caddis and good flows daily. We are beginning to catch a few more smallmouth on our floats. Trout fishing will remain good here through June and the small mouth will begin to pickup. Trips will begin earlier in the morning as TVA begins to generate in the afternoon.

Cumberland River - We are anxiously anticipating proper flow rates starting next week. If so, we will begin fishing there this weekend. I will send a short update to that effect.
