In this episode of The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash connects with Mac Brown to discuss the unique challenges and joys of fall fly fishing in the Bryson City area. As the peak of fall foliage passes, Mac shares his insights on navigating the leaf litter that can deter anglers during this season. He emphasizes the effectiveness of using dry flies, particularly with orange hues, to avoid snagging leaves and offers a technique called the "circle pickup" to keep your fly clean.

Mac and Marvin delve into the seasonal changes, from the colorful landscapes to the importance of safety and preparedness when wading in unfamiliar waters. They discuss the benefits of carrying a wading staff and having a survival kit on hand, especially as temperatures drop.

Looking ahead, Mac is gearing up for a trip to Arkansas, where he'll reunite with fellow angler Davy Wotton for some fishing and possibly upland bird hunting. He also previews his busy schedule of fly fishing shows, including appearances at the Great Waters Fly Fishing Expo and various Fly Fishing Shows, where he'll be teaching alongside notable instructors like Gary Borger.

Listeners are encouraged to embrace the fall fishing opportunities before winter sets in and reminded to check out the class signups for the upcoming shows. Tight lines, everyone!
