Fishing in cherokee and deep creek
- Thread starter FARMS100
- Start date
The vast majority of Deep Creek is on the national park, but there is a little private land on the lower end. The national park part is all wild trout, and good fishing.
The delayed harvest starts October 1st.
Early November is a great time to tie into a big spawning brown.

I will fish the DH on the tuckasegee river, I think that next week I will ride up there and look things over as I have only fished the river thru Cherokee once, there are 3 good places to fish.
I'M not sure which one I will forus on . I'm lending on the deep crk and the tuck. That way i will only have to buy 1 set of LIC.
If you know a good place to stay for 2 of us for nov-3-4 let me know that also.-------THANKS AL
I know the difference in the rivers I phased it wrong, tuckasegee runs thru bryson city, sorry about that

The Tuckaseegee doesn't run through Cherokee, that's the Oconoluftee, which is a tributary of the Tuckaseegee. If you fish Deep Creek inside the national park, you will only need a NC fishing license. If you fish the delayed harvest water on the Tuck, or the lower end of Deep Creek outside the park, you will need a NC fishing license and a trout stamp. If you fish on the Cherokee reservation, you only need a tribal permit. Confusing, huh?
