Nolichucky River Fishing Guides

The Nolichucky River offers the best smallmouth fishing in the Southeast!

The Nolichucky River is a freestone river that provides excellent smallmouth bass fishing from April to the end of October. There are very few rivers in the South that can rival the scenery and the fishing of the Nolichucky. The Catawba Angler offers guided bass fishing trips on the Nolichucky using light tackle or fly fishing gear. Our guided fishing trips on the Nolichucky are our most popular ones. The thrill of catching hard fighting smallmouth on a wild and scenic river are memories you will never forget. The Catawba Angler offers full day float trips for $350.
