Backcountry Bronzeback Float
$375 half day/$495 full day
Bronzebacks (smallmouth bass) are considered the Fightingest Freshwater Fish. Experience the backcountry in our 3-person guide raft from which you can comfortably fish while either standing or sitting, and there may be opportunities for wade fishing. This is one of the most productive smallmouth bass rivers in the region, and it’s common to see a diversity of wildlife during our float. We rarely see another angler for the entire day, and most sections of river we float, you won't see a house or road, either.
Tennessee Tailwaters Float
$400 half day/$550 full day
Float and fish with us on the water that Fly Fisherman Magazine has called a Top Ten Tailwater Fishery in the U.S. With over 7,000 trout per mile, and an IGFA world record brown trout caught on a fly in 2022, you will discover why this beautiful South Holston River has become a hot spot for anglers across the country. This can range from spectacular dry fly fishing to technical nymphing as the water is exceptionally clear, and the consistent cold temps mean the trout are used to seeing very small bugs, and we'll also apply streamer tactics when conditions favor that approach.

This trip is operated in partnership with Blue Mountain Therapy and Blue Mountain Fly Fishing. Aboard a custom hard-side drift boat built specifically for the wheelchair angler, it’s a safe and comfortable ride on some of the most productive trout water east of the Mississippi. To our knowledge, this is the only wheelchair accessible drift boat in the region. Available for year-round trips on the South Holston and Watauga Rivers in Northeast Tennessee. We also partner with ADHA lodging options. This boat has limited availability, so it is best to call in advance to plan your trip.
This adventure is perfect for people new to fly fishing who either aren't quite ready, or don't have time, for a full trip. The course lasts 2 hours, with the first hour being spent on dry land learning rod and line components, basic tackle, and casting practice. The second hour is spent in the water, either wading or from a boat depending on river conditions, and provides you hands-on experience casting to fish and line management. This two hour course will shave years of the learning curve for DIY anglers.
2 Hours: $150,
includes 1-2 anglers.
$50 each additional angler up to 5.
