A question I knew I was going to have to answer Gary. Might sound like BS but here goes. On Friday the wife and I went to Townsend and hit Little River Outfitters. Bought her license and picked up some flies and odds and ends. Drove along Little River near Metcalfe Bottoms, couldn't find hardly anywhere for her to access the water. So I fished some likely looking spots, which explains the picture of me wading. I moved upstream and finally after an hour caught a 10 inch rainbow. She got the camera out and it wouldn't come on. Dead batteries, which infuriated me because I bought those batteries brand new Wednesday on my way to Otter Creek. We drove up stream a ways and I finally got into a groove. Caught 12 rainbows and two browns, largets was a brown that went about 12 inches. All were caught on a #16 Yellow Neversink Caddis or a Yellow Sallie.
Saturday we went to Troutfest and stayed until 3 p.m. I then drove her back to the room in Pigeon Forge and went back to the park and fished Little River at Elkmont. Didn't have near the luck as the day before, but did manage three rainbows and a sucker on the caddis. Camera was at the room!
Believe it or not but there it is!
