Some nice Winter fishing going on right now on the South Holston, on low water. Altamont Anglers guides Teo Whitlock & Travis Honeycutt hit it on Friday, February 27 and found good hatches of Slate Duns (#20 & #22) in the late morning, followed by BWO's (BIG ones: #18's and #20's) starting around noon and lasting most of the day. Also on the water were sporadic appearances of gray midges. Plenty of black fly larvae and scuds in the water, joining the productive nymphing available with Slate Dun and BWO nymphs.
