My Mother was born in Lansing in 1928. I love the Nemo area. Beautiful rivers and streams. The plateau is beautiful and is different than the Smokies in its own way. Just watch out for poisonous snakes. Thanks for the great video Brother and keep'em coming!!!

I grew up smallmouth fishing on Little River in Blount County not far outside of GSMNP. I moved up to Anderson county a few years back and my shop is only 20 odd minutes from Nemo/Rock Creek Campground. When I went up to Nemo it felt just like home. I haven't really had time to fish it but hope to soon. GSMNP is so overcrowded now and it's nice when you get further out towards the plateau where there is equally beautiful county but no crowds at all.

There’s a river north of there that is just like it or maybe a little better. East Tennessee is full of small rivers like that and I’m lucky to have been born and raised here.

You are blessed to live in E Tennessee, has to be one of the best fisheries anywhere. I wish there were more fish in Carolina mountain rivers but I think all the trout stocking hurts these smaller mountain streams bass and other bait fish population. Side note- check out Astral shoes and get the high tops that protect your ankle. Good non slip and made for kayaking and walking slick rock. Perfect creek walking shoes.

@bennyharris1441 2 жыл бұрын

I fully agree, the WNC river bass fishing is lacking. I fish the French Broad for smallmouth mostly but the quality of the fish has declined in the last 5+years. I second the Astrals, it's all I use on the river now, fishing or kayaking/rafting.

@rcieszkowski 2 жыл бұрын

Just fished WNC. Did OK with the largies (at least for me) but there weren’t any giants in there. And I third the Astrals. Just bought myself a pair and used them in NC for a week. Solid.

Dude you should fish the buffalo river here in TN I only kayaked it when I was little but I remember seeing huge fish there when my buddies parents would fish, and now that I've learned my species etc, I remember those big fish being gigantic smallmouths lol...but you can definitely kayak and fish there. It's a pretty decent stretch of backwood creek bro

Very nice looking stretch of river. Great idea mixing up the finesse hellgramites and crankbaits. Man they knock the fire out of them in current. As I was taught by a veteran river guide, the bass don't have time to mess around. They usually commit all in. Definitely worth the return visit with the kayak brother. Blessings
