Tennessee Trout fishing report, Watauga & South Holston Rivers for April

It's time for another Tennessee trout fishing report, and time to get out and go trout fishing. The Watauga and South Holston Rivers are fishing great when the generators are off. There are BWO's, caddis , midges, and crane flies hatching on both the South Holston and Watauga River. The best time to catch the water off has been the weekends for the last few weeks.

The small streams are up but not off color at all. They are fishing great, and one of our largest wild rainbows of the year was caught on a small stream. The bugs are really beginning to become active with mayflies, caddis and stoneflies hatching on the small streams. The trout fishing will only get better in East Tennessee in the weeks to come.
