The Rivers

The South Holston River and the Watauga River are two of the south’s premiere trout fishing experiences, providing year-round great fishing opportunities, with excellent quality guide services available. Beautiful streams flowing through the Appalachian foothills filled with native brown trout, as well as brook and rainbow. The fish are wild, and water temperatures stay in the low 50s allowing great spawning and frequent hatches. No trout chow needed here!

The Guides

The guides we use are true local pros who grew up fishing these rivers. They know the trophy waters like back of their hand, have spent their entire lives guiding trips like ours, and take great pride in hosting us. It’s a family owned business who always exceeds our expectations. Our trip utilizes “Floating” fishing in River Boats, as opposed to “Wading” standing on the banks, rod in hand.


The Cuisine and Culture

Whether dining at the hotel or at local restaurants specializing in top-quality southern food, you will return home dreaming of the delicious meals and memories made at meal time.
