What better place for a fly fishing outfitter than along the banks of the Tellico River, central to one of Tennessee’s finest classic trout-fishing destinations?

Our area boasts some of the finest trout waters in the Southeast... without the crowds. Small streams to large tailwaters to lake impoundments, we have miles and miles of fishable waters.
