The Great Smoky Mountains and their surrounding region have some of the best wild brook and brown trout fishing in the United States. It is also home to a rich tradition of fly tying, giving rise to many patters designed not only for the tumbling mountain streams that characterize the region, nut also for some of the highly selective fish in the state's many catch-and-release trout streams.

Each chapter features a stunning macro image of the fly, a detailed recipe, and practical fishing information. In addition, author Kevin Howell explains the stories behind many of the flies, making this book an invaluable resource for anyone planning to visit the region as well as residents who want to learn how to catch more fish in their local waters.

Kevin Howell is the owner and operator of Davidson River Outfitters Inc., and a managing partner of Pesca Consultants, both located in Pisgah Forest, North Carolina. Kevin has been guiding the rivers and streams of Western North Carolina and East Tennessee for trout and smallmouth bass since the mid-1980s.
