July Fishing Report

Despite lower local water levels, the fishing has been great!  Browns and Rainbows have been caught on dry and dropper rigs using a vareity of diferent drys and smaller buggy nymphs.  Terrestrial patterns such as beetles and ants  work great for a top fly as they are always abundant this time of year.  Dropper nymph rigs have also been productive when fishing fast deeper water.

On the Tennesse tailwaters,  fishing has also been great.  On the South Holston,  the sulphur hatch has been excellent!  The dry fly fishing during generation has been amazing and large fish have been caught!  Also, beetles and other terrestrials have been bringing up large fish here and on the Watauga.  As always midges, small caddis, and craneflies are always present.
