3. Abrams Creek
One of the more unique fly fishing destinations in Tennessee is Abrams Creek, which is located inside Cades Cove in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Though not the most convenient waterway to access, it is a goldmine for anglers and also a popular spot for fly fishing because of the scenery.
4. Clinch River
One of the oldest tailwaters for fly fishing in Tennessee is on the Clinch River. It’s located in east Tennessee, with 13 miles of tailwater that flows from the Norris Dam to the city of Clinton. This section has ideal fishing conditions because of the consistent water temperatures (around 50 degrees), and large brown and rainbow trout.
