Evening Guided Trip for Big Brown and Rainbow Trout
Step into the magic of the Smoky Mountain evening on our Twilight Drifters guided float trip. As the sun dips low and shadows stretch across the water, hungry Brown and Rainbow trout move from their daytime lies to feed. This is prime time to connect with the Smokies’ largest fish, and our guides put you in the perfect position to drift flies or light tackle across glassy runs. Cool mountain air, stunning sunsets, and trophy trout — this trip is where adventure meets serenity
