Fall= Great Fishing & Great Events
The crew at Tuckaseegee Fly Shop is ready for Fall! Fall means great fishing conditions with cooler water temperatures that are more comfortable for trout. October is one of our favorite times to fish our Smoky Mountain streams because the trout are so active and eager to take a well-presented fly.
With the official start of fall today, it seems like the perfect time to remind our friends about the Grand Re-Opening of The Fly Fishing Museum of the Southern Appalachians new Bryson City home on Saturday, September 24th as well as the 2nd Annual Smoky Mountain Fly Fishing Festival happening on Saturday, October 8th in Downtown Bryson City.
