Fall Fishing Trips
We offer multiple seasonal specials for Fall Fly Fishing. Fall is when the Smoky Mountains and surrounding region hit their second peak of the year! As the temperatures start cooling off, trout go on a feeding frenzy before the chill of winter hits. The later into Fall we get, the better the fishing gets! Early Fall we see some fantastic dry fly fishing for wild trout deep inside the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. These are the prettiest streams and most beautiful trout we have in the entire region! Our 2hr Fly Fishing Fun Trip is perfect for families and people on the go wishing to pack as many activities into their vacation as possible! We get you on the water chasing trout as quickly as possible to maximize your time in the mountains! Back by popular demand, our 5hr Fall Trout Special will have you hitting the top fisheries in the region during the best times of day. Or choose a 5hr Float Trip Special on the Tuckasegee River and catch trout and smallmouth bass from the comfort of drift boats and rafts on a western sized river!
