We fish for Small Mouth starting in April all the way into October. The action is explosive, and very consistent. These trips can be either on the Tuckasegee River, or the Little Tennessee River, and range from either wade or float trips.

Rainbow Trout are found throughout all the park streams. These fish are amazingly strong and very acrobatic and come readily to a fly that has the right presentation. The Rainbow Trout located here have some of the brightest colors that you will find anywhere else in the world.
