I used to guide trout fishing in the Great Smoky Mtns Park...
Townsend is right on the park border on Little River...A great fishing river with several streams very nearby...
Tellico Plains is right at Tellico Wildlife Reserve...Bald River and Tellico River are great trout streams...
Wow! How exciting that you were a trout fishing guide!! The Tellico River is one of hubby’s favs. Thank you.
That river was the old secret. Not so much anymore.
BIL pulled a 5lb Brown out of it some years ago. Probably 4ft of depth or so.
I understand it’s been paved as well.
