Watauga River Float Trip August









Doubles, Doubles on Dries, Beetle Eats, Caddis Eats, Nice Fish Eats, what isn't getting eaten. Water has been super clear and we aren't getting as many fish, but we are catching them every way possible. In the past couple of days the water has gotten good and cloudy so fishing is improving, but nothing is better than getting them on top. We floated and Fly Fished the Watauga River in Watauga, TN. Great day with great weather. Summer dry fly fishing is on.

Watauga River Dry and Dropper Fishing














We got out of the boat and did a little wading at the bottom of the ledges on the Watauga River in TN. Fishing was good, but not easy. We got fish on lots of different dry flies and they ate midge droppers well too. The Watauga River rarely dissapoints. We had lots of rising trout to work on.

50th Birthday Party Float Trips Part II



These are a few more Watauga River Fly Fishing pictures.

50th Birthday Party Float Trips Part I







Hobson family 50th birthday party, Fly Fishing on the Watauga River. We had four boats and had excellent accomodations at the Watauga River Lodge. Nancy caught her first fish both on nymphs and dry flies, and is now hooked. It was a great time shared by three generations of the family, and fly fishing was a great way to celebrate a birthday.

Watauga River Float Fishing






Brown Trout Fly Fishing took Butch and Clayton floating down the Watauga River for some Guided Fly Fishing. Caught fish on dry flies and nymphs: midges, mayflies, beetles, flying ants, crickets, and a few sj worms. We had a great time fly fishing and catching up. I hadn't seen Clayton or Butch in a long time.

Fishing is good. Weather has been great. Call me to go float the fantastic TN tailwaters.
