South Holston gives up a trophy


A long time client and friend, Jerry of Statesville came with his son to fish with me on the beautiful South Holston Tailwater, near Bristol, Tennessee. It was one of those days they will never forget. We got to the weir area and they waded before the water hit us from the generation. They landed lots of fish using a dry dropper rig with the black and silver zebra midge doing the best. We got in my new Clackacraft for its maiden voyage down the South Holston. It was nymphing the soft seams with good success getting many double hookups. Then it was on down the river switching over to big stuff going after big fish. Jerry and Adam weren't disappointed in their efforts. It was a memory filled day and they called me today still excited about the float trip.

If you would like to float the South Holston and have a chance at one of these great trophy native browns contact me through my website, www.trout-fishers.net and lets get you out there to create a memory of a lifetime for you.
