I hear that whole area is awesome for smallies and trout. Although I have yet to fish them, James and Little TN Rivers are said to be real good. If you go East to Virginia, about 4 hours from Charleston, Shenandoah River south fork can be really fun!!! Have had many 100+ fish days in June and September. The most memorable was a cloudy, rainy day float in September a few years ago. We caught 90 or so smallies. Nothing huge but about 80% were caught with a 1/8 oz white buzzbait. What a day it was!!!

Sounds like you had a blast, Billy. Have you ever been up that way and fished with Britt? I hear he's one of the best.
