Smoky Mountains National Park Half Day Fly Fishing

5.0 · 26 Reviews

Overview

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is home to some of the best trout fishing in the Southeast. Whether you are a first-timer or a lifelong fly fisher, let Smoky Mountain Guides take you to the best fishing spots in the park. Once booked, our guide will contact you to arrange the details of your trip. We’ll work with you to plan a four-hour fishing trip based on your fish preference (rainbow, brown, or brook trout) and your hiking preference. SMG provides all the gear needed for fishing, including rods, flies, line, waders, and boots. Participants should bring a valid fishing license issued by either Tennessee or North Carolina and a Great Smoky Mountains parking pass.

GSMNP Parking Pass Required- A parking pass from GSMNP is required for this activity. Details about the parking pass including online purchases can be found at https://www.nps.gov/grsm/planyourvisit/fees.htm. Consult the National Park Service website for details. Parking pass prices currently start at $5 but some guests may qualify for a free pass or be exempt from the parking pass requirement.

TN or NC Fishing License Required - A Tennessee Fishing License can be bought here. This license can be purchased the same day as your fishing trip and can be displayed digitally on your phone as a screenshot. TWRA offers a basic fishing license, which is sufficient for this guided activity, as well as supplements for trout fishing. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park does not require a licensing supplement for trout fishing within the national park, though this may be needed if you intend to use your fishing license outside the national park before or after your tour. Consult the TWRA for other restrictions associated with your fishing license. https://gooutdoorstennessee.com/
