Another great video. Thanks for sharing your adventures! Some good looking pools for Brookies. I’m sure you’ll be back.

Thank you checking in and watching. The creek I fished on this day has been on list to locate for quite some time. I finally did that on a previous adventure on the last day just exploring. I only went up a half mile on this day, but plan to take it to the limit the next time I go. I know how to get around the waterfall next time out. Part 2 of this one will be out in a few weeks.

Yeah that one you lost was a nice one. I love chasing them in Pisgah. I’m glad you aren’t naming places such as streams too. I wanted to watch it before I approved it in smoky mt fly fishing page.

Thank you for watching and letting me share in the group. I like to keep these places a secret as much as the next guy or gal. Those that recognize the spots are just like us. Headed up to the Smokies in August for more of the same. Tight lines!

I've spent a hell of a lot of time up there over the past two decades. All of those tributaries can be really good, but there's one in particular that is the best. A lot more pressured these days, though, and the big flood crushed a lot of the fish population.

Thank you for watching and checking in. This is one of my favorite watersheds to fish and camp. The first time I fished it after the storm years back downstream I was amazed how much damage there was to portions of the creek. It completely changed portions of it. It will continue to get better. Tight lines!

Great adventure- the stream looks incredible!

Thank you Mike. Yes, it is beautiful, not too hard of a rock hop up with good pools on the way. I hope you can make it out for your solo to fish it soon. Thanks for watching and look forward to our August adventure out together.

I am from central Florida and have been up twice to fish and no luck locating places to primitive camp. Any ideas or suggestion, not exact locations of course. Love the content!

Thank you for watching and checking in. Finding a combination of primitive camping along a mountain stream can be overwhelming but have some tips for you specific to NC, but actually can be applied to any state. Check out the states wildlife commission, here is their site www.ncwildlife.org/fishing/trout-fishing-north-carolina. All states with trout fishing waters have something like this. This will show you where to fish, then from their locate a national forest of choice, which are laced with forest service roads and trails. Zero in on that area reaching through Google Maps and the AllTrails app. In NC you can primitive camp anywhere in a national forest where ever you want. The only place with designated primitive camping where you must make reservations is the Great Smoky Mountains. Half the fun is exploring for a day then going back to that perfect primitive spot. Tight lines!

You might have fished those mini streams out ??? Ive never seen anyone actually fish waters so small. Maybe let them grow little so they can swim to bigger waters.. ??

There are plenty of native brookies in these waters. You just need to be stealthy, make a good presentation of the fly and keep moving. The native brook trout live only in the small creeks at altitudes above 3500 ft. On this trip I was fishing at just above 4100 ft. Thank you for watching and checking.
