by James Buice

Overview

New series of fly fishing guides covering only the best waters, written by local experts

Detailed maps created with latest GIS mapping software--more accurate than any previous fly-fishing guidebook maps; it covers trout streams and rivers of Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Kentucky

Includes Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the nation's most popular national park with more than 9 million visitors per year

Whether you are flying through Atlanta on business (the Chattahoochee River provides superb fishing just outside of city limits) or taking an extended trip into the backcountry of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this guide gives you the information you need for a successful fishing trip. With stunning photos, detailed hatch charts for each river, photos and recipes of the most effective fly patterns, and insider information from local guides and outfitters, this book is an essential reference for the south's best trout fishing.
