Miller Watson, our Tuckasegee guide from Hookers Fly Shop in Sylva, went to Western Carolina University and indicated he might have skipped a few classes to fish. What makes the Tuck so special is the pristine water that feeds it. Here you can find rainbows, browns and brook trout. You will find stocked and wild browns and rainbows. Also, stocked brookies. The “grand slam” of the river is to net all three. Biggest in boat for Miller was a 27” wild brown.
