Another fly fishing and hiking adventure on the southern section of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. This time I met up with an old school buddy at Deep Creek Campground near Bryson City, North Carolina.
We fished Deep Creek and Indian Creek and caught many Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout along with a Warpaint Shiner. We ran across a wide variety of wildlife to include deer, butterflies, a snake, Canadian Geese and their goslings and an Eastern Newt.
We fished a few waterfalls and hiked many miles, and it paid off.
