Sorry they were hit so bad. Love fishing there.

Like your videos. Isvthatva Sportsman 17 your fishing out of? I have the same boat with a 70 on it. Great boat in my opinion

Across from that campground has always been good to fish! One of my favorites

Do you ever fish in Gatlinburg? I'd love to see a video comparing trout fishing in Gatlinburg and on the other side of the Smokies, there in Cherokee. Of course, this spot right here is going to be hard to compare with.

I’m a new subscriber. I like your style of finding and fishing. Keep it up

🤫 this is a terrible spot to fish

Thank you for all the good information 😊 your the best

You guys somehow have recipes for catfish? That's certainly not a delicacy here in Australia and people would puke at the thought lol fkn girls 🤣 So much respect to the Americans for discovering a way to make catfish taste great 👍 respect

As an Aussie guy I'm starting to really really appreciate the American man's love for fresh water fishing! Every Australian guy I know hardly ever fishes fresh water.. It's always ocean and salt water fish because they don't understand the fishes diet and how catch the fish and prepare the fish? The reason I know this is that they always complain that the fish tastes muddy lol Then I know that an idiot once fished freshwater like he does salt water and hates the taste....... More fish for me I suppose? 😁 One thing I have noticed though is that America has a lot more seasonal or migratory fish species compared to Australia because we don't get melt waters replenishing the system and most water collection is overland flow from more continuous rainfall? So we have fish species that like to live in more still waters or muddy murky waters contaminated with Overland flows usually rich in organic matter also? So in the smaller waterbodies that have steady flow in and out, if you have a decent lure or you're smart enough to catch some insects such as grass hoppers on your walk in you will be guaranteed to catch the same damn hungry fish over and over again; so the idea is to use a rope tied to the bank and stick tied to end of the rope and have it close to the exit spill way or outflow, then you put the stick and rope through the gill to keep the fish "tethered" but still alive and with the constant water flowing past the gills the fish is quite happy to swim tethered. You can simply keep adding fish onto the end of the tether 😉 Then the idea is to fish until you are done or happy with the some of the catch, then you selectively pick say 3 of the best of largest of the catch and release the rest to respect and replenish the natural stocks of fish. We have plentiful yellow bass similar to America and you guys love catching them and eating them 👍 Hardly anyone here in Australia torches them? I get the feeling that you would be the type of fella that might like the following short story? I once went out hunting with my dad and we were situated along this river that was known for good fishing including yellow bass and Murray Cod. Everyone always wants to catch a Cod, right? Well we also have a lot of carp too and they are a pest. So naturally all the guys are catching bass and mostly carp. Dad and I went exploring for miles up the river banks until we came upon a huge big tree draped out over the river full of cockatoos nesting and below this tree the water was alive and teaming with action almost looking like some kind of monster lurking beneath? Dad says to me "ok we are going back to the car to get my beach fishing steel trace and we are gonna catch ourselves a cod but don't tell any of them how we did it ok?" Sure enough we prepared ourselves and dad climbed a tree to grab a baby bird from the nest and he got bitten to sh!t getting it out and then I realised what he was doing? And he goes "you're not going to like this so you might want to close your eyes?" Dad said "we will say a prayer for this one for getting our dinner tonight because f*ck carp Amen" 😂 Not even kidding we had a huge Cod in less than 5 seconds but do you think we could get the thing in? No way it was stronger than both of us combined! Dad hitched around a tree and made me go back to get a star picket to migrate our catch up the river enough away from where we caught it so his mates didn't find out when we walked back to tell them that we needed help to bring in a giant cod. All I can remember is the shocked look on their faces because the biggest cod anyone had caught on a line was usually smaller than yellow bass anyway and meant they were illegal to eat. Took all of them over an hour to land on the bank and our secret was maintained 😎

What system do you use to turn your live scope from left to right?

My favorite spot to fish in Cherokee. Catch something every time even since the flood

In a new subscriber and a new to crappie fishing. Hope to learn from your videos. I’m in Alabama River fish on the Black Warrior.

Enjoy your videos. Thanks for posting.

Thanks Ben.

Heyman, I'm looking for a 3piece rod med/light moderate/fast action. Any suggestions. I want to throw tiny spins but backbone should I ever get into anything of size? You ever use 10# braid with a 4# tippet?

When in January will they start stocking?

Thanks. Slow your roll…..

how has it been since the hurricane? I went after and places were pretty inaccesible.

Wow that's a lot of fish I haven't been to that one but I have been to the one in tellico tn

Great reporting, brother.

👍

Nice crappie action ,, Oh Yea

hey, how's the creek fishing in cherokee when it's cold like this? is it too slow so you're out crappie fishing? was planning a trip to soco creek around Christmas

Been wanting to fish up there for 3 dacades. Dont know nothing about the place or where to fish.

Thank you I really appreciate it!

I will be there next weekend day after Thanksgiving. I will have my 17 year old grandson and 2 of his friends that have never camped before.How do you think the fishing will be? Maybe I can see you out there fishing.

If you’re not camping there, are you allowed to fish it?

Why are you showing folks the good spots?

No Panther Martin!??

I will check them out next year. We were up there a week before the hurricane hit but didn't fish any because the water looked so low and they didnt stock the ponds. I'm kind of gimped up and have to find easy access..

You must like company

Enjoy your videos, love the river and countryside, wish I would have seen your videos the first me and my brother-in-law came to Cherokee, fished over by the casino that was a good spot.

Nice one.

Use to stay every year at River Valley Campground starting back around 92. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks. Why do you fish with Red Mono? What size is the line?

We have been to that store and they are really helpful. Thank you again for sharing.

What set up are you using

you fishing in a fly fisning only part of the river..

Thanks for the tips. Much appreciated.

I've fished about all of the fishable water in Cherokee. I don't usually use a float in deep holes. I use a split shot and a hook similar to what you used. I also use nightcrawlers or other jumbo size worms. Or, we might drive down below Bryson City and buy minnows. It's not easy toting a minnow bucket around but most the deeper holes are fairly easy to get to. I use the same rig as for worm fishing. I cast across or upstream and keep the line tight while the bait lightly bounces across on or near the bottom.

I'd like to meet you up there some time. Can you let me know next time you are there? I would love to hang out with you for a few hours and fish!

Wow 😮 nice fish!

Thanks for sharing

That's just ridiculous to harm an innocent fish like that, jabbing a hook in it's mouth when it thinks it's food then drag him through the water regardless of his feelings and plan on eating it...... Without inviting me.😂

Is church on big cover road?

I caught one out at Mingo Falls the week after the storms but not much else but that might be more telling of the level of angler I am lol

Thank you for sharing. Did you catch a limit fishing on those spots?
