Great Summer Fly Fishing In Asheville, North Carolina

Summer fly fishing in Asheville, North Carolina can be very fun but knowing where to go is very helpful.  Delayed Harvest waters are opened to catch and kill on the first Saturday in June and as a result we don’t have many catch and release streams with high fish numbers during the summer.  We spend a ton of time guiding on the famed Davidson River during the summer.  The Davidson River Fish Hatchery creates a super cool sight fishing opportunity and while the trout are very selective they absolutely can be caught.  We spend hundreds of days each summer up there and are happy to show you some of our tactics.  We also spend a lot of time fishing all of the small branches that feed all of the delayed harvest streams we guide during the cool months.  The small feeder creeks hav

e small fish but they are full of beautiful wild rainbow trout, brown trout, and at the top native brook trout.  No one will give you names of their favorite wild trout stream, but exploring unkown water is half the fun of hiking in and fishing wild trout streams.  Thirdly we still fish the delayed harvest streams.  A week or two after bloody Saturday the fish that survive the harvest will come out from under the rocks and start to feed again.  The state also sneaks another stocking of trout into DH streams mid summer and the bait dunkers are all gone by then.  Asheville has great fly fishing during the warm months but having some local expertise to get in the right spot can be a huge help.  Give us a call if you want some guided fly fishing help this summer or anytime.  803-431-9437
