fishing the upper tellico requires purchase of a special daily permit and is allowed only on limited days during the week...perhaps a sign of things to come. we dallied in the lower section on our way back to tellico plains.
Those permit rules were in place back when I used to fish the area (I left Atlanta 10 years ago) and originally were used to help support the efforts to re-introduce/protect/strengthen the native brookies in the permit stretch.
the daily fee is $5.50 to fish the tellico-citico trout waters. i think it's used to support the hatchery stocking program.
"Tellico Hatchery receives 8 to 9 inch rainbow trout from DHNFH. These fish are then grown to 11 to 12 inches and stocked frequently into the Tellico River, Citico Creek, and Green Cove Pond. This intense management requires additional fees to support the program and a special Tellico-Citico permit is required to fish these waters. Several Polk County streams are also stocked with trout from Tellico Hatchery."

aren't most of the tellico brookie waters on the nc side?
