Wade Trips
Tight casting on a small stream in Pisgah National Forest, Brevard, North Carolina
half day wade trips
Half Day Wade Trips are 3-4 hours and only available during non prime dates (July through September, roughly).
Half day wade trips are for one or two persons and include all rods, reels, waders, flies, leaders, tippets, and instruction. Drinking water is also provided. Trips begin at optimal times for fishing. During the early spring months this may be between around 9 or 10 a.m. or as late as 2 p.m. By early summer/late spring most morning trips will start around 7 or 8 a.m. , afternoon trips around 1 or 2 p.m. and evening trips around 4 or 5 p.m. In mid summer fishing for trout late in the morning or afternoon is usually unproductive and puts a lot of stress on the fish unless there has been a significant rain event. At this time of year Pisgah Outdoors recommends starting early, fishing at high elevations or opting for a float trip for smallmouth.
NOTE: Beginning Spring of 2024 1/2 Day Wades (4 hours) will only be available when water temps dictate that fishing should end early. Half days will not be available for booking during the prime fishing seasons of Spring and Fall. Full Day Wades (6-8 hours)are still available.

full day wade trips
Full Day Wade Trips are 6-8 hours during prime fishing season.
Full day wade trips are for one or two persons and include all rods, reels, flies, leaders, tippet, and instruction. Drinking water is provided and a small lunch is also provided. If you have dietary requirements or food allergies we suggest bringing your own lunch. If eating a stream side PB&J sandwich and getting back to the fishing is your style then you are covered. Early spring trips will usually run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Late spring trips start between 6 and 8 a.m., they may also start around 1 p.m. and go till dark depending on weather and bugs. Summer fishing, being weather dependent, may start as early as 5 a.m. , as late as 9 a.m. or a float for smallmouth may be a better option. Fall switches back to fishing 9 to 5.
NOTE: Beginning Spring of 2024 all trips during prime season will be full days (6-8 hours) only
