Western North Carolina

Before you all get upset with me; I know I am suppose to be fishing for smallies at this point of the summer but it’s been brutally hot and humid and the higher elevations were calling me. But these will be my last few brooks until fall I swear! 🤠🎣🤙🤙

Yadkin River Shoals Fishing

Wondering if anyone has experience on the Yadkin River shoals near Eastbend fishing for small mouth? I’m a fly fisher and want to give it a shot. Any tips or experience info would be awesome, I don’t think it’s a kept secret spot but want to make sure I’m going to the right spot. I live close to WS and it’s one of the closest spots to get on a small mouth. Looking to wade in the bean shoals or Ivy bluff trails.. also would like to go to the more shallow side since I’ll be wading and like to keep it safe.

Rainy morning and a new PB

Deep into a tributary of a tributary in search of true Southern strain Appalachian Brook Trout and landed a PB, along with some nice Browns. Lots of intermittent rain so I tied on a foam beetle and it was the ticket.
