I'm thinking about heading up there the weekend and I'm curious about the water levels up that way, it's been pretty dry all summer here.
Thanks for the info, and yes, I do "have to fish"No I don't live up that way, but it's safe to assume that water levels are low. Nearly every stream in WNC is low right now, so I don't think Wilson Creek will be any different. If you have to fish, fish the fast water where there are a lot of bubbles. In this heat and with low water, trout will be seeking oxygen. Deep holes near fast water can prove even better. Also look for shady, undercut banks.
hasn't been to dry for the swimmers! if you're heading up that way, head way up the river. Most of the holes from Edgmont on down had an innertube or two in each. it was about three weeks ago when I was there, so maybe with school back in it will thin out.
