Fly fishing in the Great Smoky Mountains
National Park is great during all four seasons of
the year. There are difference in the methods,
strategies and techniques you should use
throughout the year depending on the
environmental conditions. The temperature and
oxygen content of the water can drastically affect
how often and much trout feed. It is important to
understand their underwater world.
