Walk & Wade Fishing Trips
We guide many of the famous streams, creeks and rivers in NC, VA and TN. If you have heard of it, we probably guide it! We provide all of the necessary wading gear that you will need along with rods, tackle, snacks, drinks and lunch.
In addition, Holston River Fishing Guides has been awarded “Special Use Permits” from the US Forest Service to guide you in National Forest Land. These permits allow us to take you to water that sees little to no pressure from other guides. Beaverdam creek, Whitetop Laurel, Laurel Creek and Upper S. Fork Holston are just a few of the 11 bodies of water included in our permits. The rest of them are so exclusive that we can’t list them here! Call or Email us for more info about our “National Forest Wade Trips” to target Brook, Rainbow or Brown trout. Or target all three of these trout to complete the “grand slam” by booking one of our multi-day fishing packages!
Many of these creeks and rivers are chock full of brown and rainbow trout. Trout over 14″ are caught wading, fairly regularly throughout the season! Our guide service is one of the few guide services that are permitted to take you to these wild and remote fishing streams.
We have had so many memorable days in these places over the last two decades, and are very excited to share our secrets with you.
