The Tuckasegee is not in the park in the area of the swinging bridge and according to the NC Fishing and Trout Waters page there are no restrictions on that stretch of river. I may give it a go after the first of the year and see if those big browns are still holed up downstream of that island....


Yeah outside the park still see tons of people fishing with corn and worms for trout. They line up right next to the stocking trucks when they let them out. Just don't see the fun in that.

Its fun for kids and a good opportunity for folks who ain't done it to catch some dinner. Catching several 5-10 pound browns that have held over and 3 pound Rainbows, on the other hand, is fun I don't care how many trout I have caught. There may not be any holdover fish in the river but there used to be and they were a blast to catch.
