Is there any winter fly fishing in that area and how good is the fishing?
Yes. We did some fly fishing, but didn't catch any at this time. The 2nd picture we fly fish that entire stretch. There was a deep hole just 15 yards from where I took picture. My backpacking partner claimed that creek has produced 50 fish in a single trip during spring/summer. Only problem is, you gotta fight the bears for it. He claim to see more bears in this area of the park than anywhere else in the national park. He said he was flying fishing last spring and he heard a noise and behind him there was a branch hanging over the creek and a black bear was just laying on the branch starring at him. lol. Guys I ride bikes with loves backcountry trout fishing in the Smoky Mountain.
