Chef's Ron and Graham of lazybettyatl spent a day on the river with us thanks to our mutual pal nativeprimescott . This was the first day Graham had ever been fishing, much less #flyfishing , so naturally he took the front of the boat. After a little coaching he caught his first fish ever, first trout, first fish on a fly, and a lot of other firsts 🤯! Then straight to #browntown he went, probably landing one of the finest wild browns he might ever hold in #NC for a long time! Chef Ron didn't do so bad either keeping his rod bent most of the day! A fine day it was!

We're fresh off an incredible trip to Alaska with aniakriverfishinglodge . Literal boatloads of fish were held (and released), many laughs were had, and lots of friendships were made. We'll be back, and you should be there with us! Stay tuned for more (sign up for our newsletter (in bio) to be the first in the loop)!

Don't hang those boots and waders up for the winter! The crew over at Brookings Anglers say this can be one of the best times to wet a line here in WNC! Cool water, happy trout, and NO crowds. Just watch that extended forecast and look for a strain of a few days that reach to the high 40's or into the 50 degree mark for what could be your most successful outing yet!
