The premier fly fishing guide service for the Cumberland river.
Water flows have been pretty good so far this year for spring and fishing has been fair. I have taken a few nice browns and rainbows. There has been a recent stocking of brook trout so it’s hard not to get a few. I notice last Friday that the Corp kicked up the water flow […]
The Cumblerland has fished really well all summer. Still taking some large bow’s and brown’s each trip but fish are starting to get weary of boats and fly line. Not to much top water action right now so nymphs still seem to be the ticket. Hatches of Bwo’s, midges, sulfers, and caddas remain strong. It’s […]
Fishing is starting to pick up on the Cumberland. Water off color, but big flies are taking nice fish. Water temp is 45 degrees so plan on nymph fishing deep holes and slower moving water. The new bridge has changed black creek fish bar a the bottom and it may be difficult to get an […]
The Cumberland River has been fishing excellent over the last couple of weeks. Tva has been sluicing and with the added oxygen, it has created some great fishing. The best fishing has been from the dam to Winfrey’s Ferry and pheasant tails and mop flies have been working well.
The Cumberland has been fishing good, but has slowed down a little over the last couple of weeks. Water is clearing up and fish are starting to spook a little from boats and anglers. Trout don’t seem to have moved up to the banks yet but I am starting to get looks and takes on […]
I was able to get a couple of guide trips in before the rain hit a two weeks ago and the fishing was fantastic. At that time I was not seeing any cicadas and fish were coming on traditional nymphs like pheasant tails. I have seen a Instagram post since then and have been told […]
With the lack of any heavy rains TVA has been running some good weekend schedules and the fishing is turning on. Saturday was little windy so, I not able to hit all the sections I wanted but was still able to net several nice rainbows. Traditional flies were working the best: pheasant tails, princes, frenchies […]
It’s been a while since I posted a report so thought I would get a quick update in. The river have been fishing really well and water flows have been great for this time of year. Trout have started to move into some of their spawning areas and seem to be on the move, so […]
The Cumberland has been fishing good all month long. Water can be low and really clear early in the mornings until TVA starts generating. Signal zebra midges and light tippet have been working well on the low water and mops and streamers have been taking bigger fish on the high water. Taking some fish on […]
The Cumberland river has been fishing really good over the last two months. I have been netting several nice fish each trip and this past weekend was no different. The water has been low and clear as of resent due to the lack of rain and low water flows. I am seeing a few sulfurs […]
