Mid June, 2008 Fishing Report - South Holston River

Sight fishing has been the preferred method to catch the big browns that are grouped up in the flat water. Down and across presentations, 12 ft. 6X fluorocarbon leaders, and size 24 flies has been the way to go. Three fish over 25 inches have been landed by our guest in the last month on a certain stretch of still water. All three fish were spotted before they were caught, and each one ate a size 20 or smaller fly. Experienced anglers are encouraged to take a trip with our guides stalking the big browns on the South Holston. Craneflies, sulfurs, and bluewings have been the dominant hatches. The midges are also hatching sporadically throughout the day, mostly over sandy bottoms.
