As a lousy Millenial who’s only fished the clinch for about 8 years, I can’t recall seeing ANY TU attempts to improve the fishery aside from cleaning up trash. As previously stated the charitable...

There’s nothing better than fresh caught baked CR Grand Slam.

It’s more of a “Turducken” platform.

13” Brook > 20.5” Rainbow > 27” Brown

Good eatin’.

Nets are like having 4 wheel drive.

It’s better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

The kicker is that the guys (some on this forum) that consistently produce the best results, fish it several times a month if not a week haha

Disclaimer: I’m not including myself in that fold.

Then why complain if you know what you’re getting yourself into before you fish the Smokies once a year?

We’re comparing apples and oranges when it comes to Appalachian freestones and streams...

What's even more awesome is it's dead!

They're literally everywhere throughout the river. And they do their thing no matter the cfs. Low water, 1 gen, or during the sluice.

I just wanna know where they roost at and I'll be glad to...

I'd love to refer you to the TWRA website and their stream surveys dating back to the 90's, but that page no longer exists. 💀

Lmaooo now that's funny 😂

Thus why I said "SUCCESFUL" taller folks. If a taller person who is "SUCCESFUL" at small stream trouting, wouldn't he have to be better at one of the many factors than a "SUCCESFUL" person of shorter...

6'4" with size 15 shoes and bad knees and you have to learn to pick your moves before you make them. But the 6'9" wingspan helps, I'll be darned if I can't highstick from across the river with the...

Waterwolf, this cracked me up. It's a lot more common than you think. 😂

But my biggest downfall is being 6'4" and clumsy so it doesn't help either whether you're wearing full camo or not.

Now that's a nice trout, especially for LR. 👌🏻

The schedule from one phone or computer can vary sometimes. Your phone may not update it as it should when you open the app. Who really knows. Also these dams really aren't there for recreation...

Prior to the change the region 4 website was pretty decent. Had PDFs of every stream survey back to the late 90's. It's just fun stuff to read and explore.

They neglected to take down this...

Here we have another fine example of tax dollars spent and dwindling resources and services.

While it's nothing serious, TWRA website has been revamped and has appeared to be missing A LOT of...

I drove over after work yesterday evening to talk to my buddies who fished, I was waiting on them at millers ramp, and there were fish feeding pretty heavily in the tail out above the island until...

The surface will have to get quite a bit colder for that to happen correct? It'll take more than just nights in the 40's to get that job done. Last couple years I can remember having water temps...

Yeah that's how it feels up high as well. 62 by my fishpond gage one evening last week.

Did you get a water temp at that super secret location by chance? 🤔

I have a 10' 4wt recon that's broken (gruesome tailgate accident) that I've neglected to return. I really like that rod on the tailwaters. I can bomb casts to sections of river I can't get in...

If you're set on the H3 at least get their 3F 5wt. Not supposed to be as fast as their other series. But if you're not set on the H3 you could try their superfine carbon. It's a great mountain rod....

I've been using just some buggy synthetic dubbing under the wing case, slightly pick or brush the fibers out and them trim them to desired length. It looks pretty decent wet and it gives you a quick...

They've been sluicing for the weekend rec schedule for the last couple months. Although they don't update the cfs flow right that second, it does after a couple hours I've noticed. Saturday I was...

I assumed they had a generator down or maintenance or something of that sort. I figured you'd have an answer concerning the sluice instead of 2 gens. Lol

But Yeah if we didn't have Rec schedules...
