- A special day fly fishing the beautiful Cataloochee Valley. It's hard to beat the scenery between the wild fish and beautiful fall foliage in this amazing valley. What a great day to be on the water!

All those wild fish. Another one of Gods blessing.
So true. Thanks for taking time to watch.
My dad and I spent three days fly fishing in that valley last fall. Absolutely beautiful. Brought me to tears a few times.
That’s awesome! I can only imagine the memories that you two probably have from that trip-will probably last a lifetime!
man, your filming and editing just keep getting better. thanks for the video. great job
Thank you! I had a lot of fun filming and editing this one because of all the natural beauty. Will keep trying to get better with each video. Thanks for taking time to watch!
@@ColbertOutdoors yea, lots of nice B roll. you could probably just make a complete video of B roll with music and fishing.
This is true. Would be a good way to change things up and do something different.
Fantastic video
Thank you!
Nice work! Cataloochee is one of my favorite places to fish and to just be in general.
Thank you! You’re right- whether fishing or just exploring it’s a special place to be.
A beautiful setting and a great video! Thank you!!!
Thanks so much for watching!
That looks wonderful.
I really enjoyed your video. Congrats on the Slam. You really captured the beauty of the valley. Fall is a special time in the Smokies.
Thanks so much for taking time to watch! And thanks for the kind words!
Very nice quality video. Nothing like being in such beautiful scenery. And of course flyfishing for trout. How do you like the fishpond backpack. I looked at it this weekend at mossy creek flyshop
Thanks for watching! I love the backpack so far. I picked it up last winter and have used it quite a bit now. I especially love it for bigger day trips where I’m hiking a good bit as it allows me to carry extra gear. I have also found myself using it for smaller trips like the one in this video simply because it lets me carry extra gear for recording. I currently have it paired with their Canyon Creek chest pack and love it as well.
Great video love to see the fall colors
Thanks so much!
Going up next week. Been looking forward to this trip all year.
Good luck! Should be a great trip!
Great video!
Thank you!!!
Man you sure put in a lot of work into your excursions
There are brook trout in all of he tribs plus the mainstream now days. The water is so low I would have stayed in the mainstream.
That’s so interesting. Since my visit, I’ve definitely heard others confirm what you are saying as well. I think that’s encouraging that there is a strong enough population of brookies to compete side by side with the bows and browns in that area. Thanks for the info! Good to know for next time.
@@ColbertOutdoors Years ago it was very rare to catch them in the main stream. Then about 20 years ago we had and awful drought. The headwaters of the tribs all but dried up and went underground and the fish came down into the mainstream. They have been there ever since. It's also important to note the stream temps of the tribs and mainstream. Cataloochee has some of the coldest water in the park, all the tribs come from high elevation springs.
Wow. That’s such interesting history. It’s always interesting to see how historical events have shaped an ecosystem and a fishery. Thanks for sharing!
Nice river, yeah !!!
BUT fly fishing means fishing with a fly and NOT 'let the fish fly' 🤨
Haha this is true. Thanks for watching!
Flyfished the smokies on 10-25, caught many trout, had to stop several times to take in the scenery. Absolutely breathtaking, just me,the trout,and the forest. A perfect fall day. Enjoyed watching. New subscriber. 👍
Thanks so much for taking time to watch and for subscribing! So glad you got to enjoy the Smokies during such a beautiful time.
