Streams that drain the eastern slope of the Great Smoky Mountains feature blue-ribbon fishing for rainbow and brown trout. And the towering hardwood ridges of the Nantahala forest are home to an abundant population of Eastern wild turkeys.
Visitors here can pursue gobblers in the morning and cast for trout in the afternoon.
Hunters who want more information or maps of the Nantahala forest should contact the U.S. Forest Service's Cheoah Ranger Station in Robbinsville.
