Trout do not always feed in swift water. Sometimes, they will dine in pools. Oftentimes, trout will feed near the bottom of the stream, where the water tends to flow more slowly than the current at the surface. In cold water, the trout will almost certainly feed in slow water, which is often along the stream's bottom. Rather than trying to stay warm, they are actually trying to conserve energy in the cold water.
Clinch River Hatches and Trout Flies:
There are a few mayflies and quite a few
caddisflies that emerge on the Clinch River
but the hatches are not consistent day in and
day out. There is a sulphur hatch that can be
good at times. It is about the only mayfly
hatch of any importance. It starts in late April
and peaks during May. By the first of June it
has ended in most areas. Many days you will
be lucky to see midges on the surface. Most
of the fly fishing should be done subsurface.
Holston River Hatches and Trout Flies:
Our information on aquatic insects is based on
our stream samples of larvae and nymphs, not
guess work. We base fly suggestions on
imitating the most plentiful and most available
insects and other foods at the particular time
you are fishing. Unlike the generic fly shop
trout flies, we have specific imitations of all the
insects in the Holston River and in all stages of
life that are applicable to fishing. If you want to
The Quill Gordons (Eperous Pleuralis) nymphs are clingers. For most of their life,
up until it is near the time for them to hatch, they stay hidden down between and
under the rocks on the bottom of the fast water runs and riffles. They are not
readily available for trout to eat. A few days before they begin to hatch they move
from their fast water habitat to slower moving water. Often this is behind large rocks
and boulders near the fast water. Trout are very aware of this short migration of the
