: Clinch River - Flows are best here for early starts and weekend trips. The rivers are in great shape and full of rainbows, browns, and brookies in the Clinch. The browns are on the move, with some larger fish being taken on streamers. This may be the best time of year to catch big browns on the Clinch. The best numbers are coming from small nymphs drifted downstream from the boat. The Holston has nice size rainbows and fishes great in Fall and Winter. The Fall colors are near peak here.

| About: -
The Clinch is Tennessee's oldest cold-water tailwater. Norris Dam was completed
in 1936, and trout have been stocked in the river since 1950. Tennessee's state-record brown trout was caught on the Clinch River. And every
year the tailwaters of Norris Lake yields big trout, including some
double-digit weight browns. Currently, the TWRA stocks roughly 250,000 trout per year in the 14-mile-long
Norris tailwater.
