Brook Trout are not as difficult
to fool as the rainbow or brown
trout; however, getting around in
the streams and casting to them
is usually not very easy.

Fly Fishing DVD's "Strategies
That Catch Trout" covers the
game plan anglers should use
to consistently catch trout.
Small Smoky Mountain Trout Streams
require creative cast and presentations that
are often necessary just to get the fly into an
area of productive water. That's not usually a
very easy thing to do underneath a thick
canopy of overhanging tree limbs.
What Fly Should I Use?
This is the most frequently
asked question about fly-fishing
anywhere; however, it's not one
of the most important ones.
You will find that Great Smoky Mountains
National Park may require some fly-fishing
methods that are a quite different than those you
may use at other places. While the methods are
vastly different from those used in fly-fishing
large western streams and rivers, they are not
that different from the headwaters of many other
eastern or western freestone streams. The
methods that are effective in the park are quite
different from that used in fly-fishing spring
creeks. They are also quite different from those
used to fish most tailwaters.

Caddisflies, especially the net
spinners, do not exist in large
quantities in the Smokies. Other
types such as the cased caddis
exist in fairly large quantities.
Mayflies of the clinger nymph
families are plentiful in the
Smokes..
Brown trout generally require different fishing
methods and techniques if you are specifically
targeting them. They are usually more difficult to
catch than the other species. They tend to stay
hidden under a rock during the day and feed
mostly during low light conditions such as dark
cloudy days or at night.

Don't forget the
Kids:
Angie selecting a fly
for our grandson,
Tanner Deupree
We had to remind
Tanner that he forgot
to put his wading
belt on. If you slip
and fall in without a
belt or with the belt
loose, it would be
difficult to get back
up out of the water
with water in your
waders. Without a
belt, they would fill
up almost instantly.
Always keep your
wading belt on snug
and tight around
your waist.
Below are just a few of the
World's Best Flies - "Perfect
Flies" There are over 180 new
new caddisfly patterns, 24 new
caddisfly patterns, 24 new
stonefly patterns, a dozen new
midge patterns, many new
terrestrial and streamer patterns.
Stalking Appalachian Trout Host
Christopher Tobias teaches you
how to catch trout even under
low, extremely clear water
conditions. Learn everything you
need to know in order to
consistently catch trout on the fly.
The detailed instructions include
the most successful fishing
methods, techniques and
strategies.
All the trout caught in this
presentation are either wild or
native trout. None were
stocked or came from a hatchery.
Wild and native trout are very
aggressive, lightning fast and
much more fun to catch than
stocked trout. Catching a native
or a stream-bred wild trout just
adds something special to the
pleasures and skills required for
fly-fishing small streams..

Don't be intimidated
by those who claim
that fly fishing for
trout requires years
of experience. It
doesn't. Angie
learned fast and
easy and after a very
few trips to the
Smokies became
very proficient at
catching wild trout.
