The rivers and streams of the NC mountains and foothills are among the most popular destinations for anglers, especially those who are avid about fly fishing.

The Fly Fishing Museum of the Southern Appalachians, now located in Bryson City, is filled with exhibits and videos showcasing profiles of legendary “Stream Blazers,” the evolution of rods and reels, basic knots, fly-tying, types of gear, types of gamefish, regional fishing waters, and the history of fly fishing in the Southeast.

A large number of anglers come to Bryson City each year to fish the Delayed Harvest section of the Tuckasegee River that runs through the center of town, as well as other nearby streams.

The museum also includes a gift shop with logoed jackets, caps, shirts, umbrellas and more.
