Now I'm gonna have to add this as a stop and do some fishing when I go check out the aquarium.

@@tnwildlife Well I'm from EKY and have trout fished most of my 52 yrs. Here, Western Washington and even South Island New Zealand. My friends are City Boys! Just as excited about the bafoonary that will ensue with them two bumbling around! Ha!

Informative video! I just returned from an enjoyable fly fishing trip to the smokies in mid-April that included a week at Jake Best CG. This will be my base camp on future trips to that area of the CNF. Hard to pick between Citico Creek and the Tellico River though.

I go here and get called the trout king up in the camps

Are generators allowed in the primitive camp sites? Great video
