Trout fishing on the Nantahala river, NC
GUIDED TROUT FISHING -- WADE-TRIPS ON THE NANTAHALA RIVER
Permitted and supported by the USDA/Nantahala National Forest
Dubbed by many fly-rodders to stand among the premier fly-fishing destinations in the southern Appalachian Mountains, the Nantahala River holds every feature found on the trout streams of southern Appalachia.
Enjoyed by beginner to expert fly-fishermen, this beautiful riverway in "the land of the noonday sun" holds brown, rainbow and brook trout and is fished by the guides of Reel Angling Adventures during the "delayed harvest" regulation period. The "DH" section of each of this trout-fishing gem is packed with thousands of trout per mile among boulder gardens, glassy pools, pocket water, tasty tailouts and incredible plunge pools.
TRIP DESCRIPTION
