We have one more stoking on the Tuck this week and that will conclude all the stockings for 2017.  Seems like this year has passed us by.  Thanksgiving is next week and then the Christmas shopping rush begins and it feels like spring.  It does look like we could get some 20's this weekend just in time for some of our guys backcountry camping and fishing excursion. 

The trout in the Tuck seem to be hitting on chartreuse beads or chartreuse mop flies.  That seemed to be the key for us.  We tried various setups and that was the one common item, chartreuse bead.  We will see if it continues but be aware that BWO's are coming off on a regular basis so I am hoping that some BWO emergers will start producing fish. 

Some larger browns are being caught in the GSMNP on various setups.  Dry flies and nymphs are getting the attention of some aggressive browns. Water levels are good and lot of the leaves got washed away with the recent rainfall.

Tight Lines!
