Fly fishing trips on the Tuckasegee River

Posted by on April 11, 2016

Fly fishing trips on the Tuckasegee River

The Tuckasegee River has been producing some impressive numbers and some of the biggest fish we have seen in the last few seasons. With the recent March and April stocking on the delayed harvest sections fishing on the Tuckasegee has been fantastic. One more stocking in early May will add another 10,000 fish. With the May stocking the Webster and Dillsboro delayed harvest section average over 9,000 trout per mile. Now is the time to book a wade or float on this section of the Tuckasegee River.

We offer both wade and float trips on the Tuckasegee River. Most of our trips between October and early June are on the delayed harvest sections. From June to late September we offer float trips on the upper and lower sections of the Tuckasegee for trout and bass. We target mainly Smallmouth Bass on the Tuckasegee River but we also see Spotted Bass, Perch and plenty of trout.
