Anybody have a recommendation for someplace to fish for a few
hours on a Friday in June near Asheville ?


Fawn Lake is particularly nice this time of year.

who figures it can just as easily not exist just outside of Ashville.

LOL! No, but there is a Fontana Lake nearby. It's down there near
Ashville/Cherokee somewhere. If all else fails, there is a Harrah's Casino
at Cherokee. Fishing, gambling, it's nearly the same....otherwise they'd
call them Catching and Winning :-)

Fontana is too far away, there has to be a decent trout stream
somewhere along the Blue Ridge Parkway long before you get to
Cherokee. Besides, I don't fish Fontana Lake, it looks like a
toilet bowl with a big red **** ring running all around it.
Ugliest friggin' impoundment I ever saw.

WOW! Why don't you say what you think next time! lol

Try this link:

http://www.ncwildlife.org/fs_index_03_fishing.htm

Has an interactive map with public access areas, covers the entire Western
portion of NC. It's the best I can do, even as a local/native. My haunts are
in the Northern NC mountains.

Ok, the map must be in a container, as the link doesn't take you where I
intended:

Click on MAPS in the top menubar at the link above. Then click on Region 1
(Mountains) in the map that comes up. Then it will list all the managed
areas in the region. Sorry for the inconvenience.
