Clinch River
The forecast is looking like high flows again for the forseeable future. Fishing will likely be limited to boats for the time being due to the recent heavy rains. Fishing can still be great if drifting, though. The key to this high,stained water will be large heavy streamers fished on heavy full sinking lines. Darker colors will be your friend in the murky water. For those wanting to fish nymphs and midges, focus on larger than normal patterns with a large helpin' of split shot to get it down. Strike indicators will need to be sized up as well to account for the heavy split shot.
