About Your Trip

The French Broad River is great fishery that produces some nice fish . The section that i fish runs from Douglas dam all the way to Knoxville. This stretch of water has great bass and walleye fishing. We typically fish for about 8 hours in a day. About halfway through the day we stop and have a light lunch. If you are visiting the Gatlinburg /Pigeon Forge/ Sevierville area this stretch of river is a great choice .
