CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Whether you crave a fresh-air adventure or a peaceful sojourn, there are a wealth of enticing options. Explore majestic mountain landscapes, scenic hiking trails, spectacular train excursions, a vibrant downtown, the pristine waters of Fontana Lake, and the thrill of whitewater on the Nantahala River. On Friday's show, Charlotte Today hit the road to Bryson City to chat with Eugene Shuler, master Fly Fisherman with Fly Fishing the Smokies.
“Bryson City, nestled in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, has officially been named the Fly-Fishing Capital of the South” says Shuler. He adds “our family has been here for four generations enjoying the beauty that is Bryson City.”
This prestigious designation comes as no surprise, considering the town's abundant fly-fishing opportunities and stunning natural beauty. Fly fishing enthusiasts from across the country can now flock to Bryson City to indulge in their passion and experience world-class fly fishing in the breathtaking surrounding landscapes. The state of North Carolina designates Bryson City as a “Mountain Heritage Trout Water City,” and provides public access to the Tuckasegee River - a trout stream that runs through Bryson City.
