What's the best place to hit between Knoxville and Asheville? Clinch or Holston in Knoxville or somewhere in the mountains?

cherokee trophy section.

gotta pay to play there.

the north mills isnt bad.

you could always fish DOOK's favorite stretch of the north fork of the _______ river. PM me for details....

Float section of the Holston is great. If you need to borrow a bote, holler.

For HUGE browns in the winter, you simply can't beat the Clinch...

Cherokee is worth the money in the off season.

The holston is a wonderful river, but a float takes planning, double vehicles, and all that jazz. I thought he was traveling and just wanted to hit good water close to the interstate.

The clinch is mean winter stream, not really close to the interstate though.

I would take my arse to Sylva and fish the tuck, 20 minutes off forty, and park the truck where you wanna fish. the chances are great for alot of fish, and big fish.



I will be on the holston late in september, you gonna let me steal the hyde for the weekend?

Thanks guys. I will call you 2TH if I am going to get to fish.

Just a small note, so as not to waste time....North Mills has been poached clean and the Tuck has maybe 1 fish left since it became open season in June... it will fish better starting in Oct. when they close it for delayed harvest.

Not that I disagree entirely about the hatchery streams taking a beating in the summers......(btw it is not poaching since they let you keep the fish June thru Oct), however I took a small group to the tuck august 24th-25th, we did well on dry flies, and caught small mouth.
