In today’s episode of the Trout Wrangler Podcast, we kick things off with an exciting recap of our recent trip to the Pigeon River, where we managed to land an incredible 85 fish in a single day! We share the highlights, the fly patterns that worked best, and the overall experience on the water. Next, we tackle an important and often frustrating topic for anglers: the ongoing confusion around identifying public versus private waters on the East Fork of the French Broad River. We share our experiences, discuss the challenges, and offer tips to help you navigate these tricky waters responsibly. We also take a closer look at the current condition of North Carolina’s delayed harvest waters. We analyze how the recent trout stockings are performing and what that means for anglers planning trips this season. To close things out, we shift gears to college football with our pick for the Army-Navy game and our prediction for who will take home the Heisman Trophy. Thanks for tuning in!
