Hiwassee River Tailwater
AI-suggested draft · review before you go
The Hiwassee River below Apalachia Dam is one of Tennessee's premier trout fisheries, offering cold, clear tailwater conditions year-round. The river is designated as a Tennessee Scenic River and supports excellent populations of rainbow and brown trout. Fly anglers favor midge and caddis patterns in the upper reaches near the powerhouse.
