What is a Fly Fishing Float Trip?

A float trip is by far the most popular option for fly fishing the Nantahala or Tuckasegee Rivers. The boats are set up for 1-2 anglers and the guide. You are comfortably seated in an oar rigged boat with a guide.  You have a 360-degree casting area around the boat, giving you a much larger fishing area, and you can cover a much greater distance of river.   It is also easier to get away from the river banks, which are heavily forested.

What is a Fly Fishing Wade (Wet Wade) Trip?

For small streams where floating is not an option, a wade trip is the best way to fish. Your guide will select the best places to fish as you explore the river geared up in waders and boots. Wade fishing is recommended for fishing the Upper Nantahala River.
