Spring Fly-Fishing

Asheville & Western North Carolina 

Spring Fishing Western North Carolina

Here in the mountains of Western North Carolina, we’re fortunate to have a wide array of fishable waters right in our backyard; and with the arrival of Spring, the fly-fishing for trout and smallmouth bass starts heating back up! We literally have hundreds of miles of wild trout water to explore, including dozens of secluded native brook trout streams in the high elevations, as well as many larger trout and smallmouth bass rivers in both North Carolina and East Tennessee, which we fish from rafts and drift boats, taking in the beautiful mountain scenery along the way. To schedule your fishing trip, call us at 828-645-8700 or check out our Guide Service page.

Spring Delayed Harvest Stocking

In North Carolina, we’re also lucky to have a great trout stocking program, known as Delayed Harvest. The DH program is twenty years old and this spring is proving to be one of the best stocking seasons yet. Delayed Harvest waters are designated as Catch and Release from Oct 1st until the first Saturday in June and can only be fished with single-hook artificial lures. The DH waters have been stocked with good numbers and sizes of rainbow, brook, and brown trout. Click here to see what streams are stocked when.
