INTO THE BACKCOUNTRY: Backpacking, Camping, and Fly Fishing the Smokies

This is a special backpacking trip for my wife and I into the Deep Creek area of the Great Smoky Mountains. Come along as we backpack, camp, and fly fish the Smokies on a beautiful Spring weekend.

Thanks so much! And thank you for taking time to watch. Hope you’re able to make it happen at some point!

Awesome adventure… never fly-fished in the Smokies. Always trying to knock out miles on my 900 miler attempt. But I will one day! I’ve done it in the Uintas in Utah on a multi-day hike where we hiked from alpine lake to alpine lake, fly-fishing for lunch and dinners. Good edit… as content creator, I can appreciate the time you put in the edit. JBEN⚡️HIKES

Thanks so much! That’s so cool that you’re working toward being a 900 miler. Maybe you can spare some time to fish during your adventures one day. A random goal I have set for myself is to see how many of the Smokies streams I can fish in my lifetime-kinda like a 900 miler for fishing…😁

Just got back from a quick camping trip in the Allegheny mountains and we camped right next to a creek. My friends fished and there was a guy fly fishing and I thought it would be neat to learn how to do it. Then I stumbled upon your channel. I enjoyed the video and subscribed.

Nice! Thanks so much for checking the channel out and I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Hopefully it further piqued your interest in fly fishing and makes you want to learn even more-if it does, I’ll call that a success!

A great 'couples in the backcountry' video, rare to find a Smoky's backpacking trip video that includes fishing, a best kept secret few know of.

[@ColbertOutdoors]

Thank you. I agree, the Smokies are so special already, but getting to experience them through the lens of backpacking and fishing makes it that much better!

Nice video. You are one step ahead of me on getting my wife out for backpacking.

[@ColbertOutdoors]

Thank you! Haha I hope you are able to convince yours to go with you as well someday. I’m glad I was able to convince her to go and hopefully we can have more adventures in the future.
