Real-time bite quality scores for 12 WNC trout streams. Live USGS flow data, hatch predictions, solunar feeding windows, and an audio briefing — built by an angler, for anglers.
Stop guessing which stream to fish. The WNC Trout Predictor scores conditions in real time so you spend less time driving and more time casting.
Each stream gets a 1–10 score based on 13 weighted factors including flow, water temp, pressure, hatches, solunar, stocking, and more. Updated live.
Real-time CFS, gauge height, and water temperature from USGS gauges. Flow trend arrows show whether conditions are improving or deteriorating.
Temperature-triggered hatch forecasts with probability scores. Know what's hatching, when, and exactly which fly patterns to tie on — dries, emergers, and nymphs.
Visual timeline showing major and minor solunar periods. Know when fish are most likely to feed aggressively — plan your day around the bite windows.
Hit play and listen to your morning briefing on the drive to the river. Top streams, scores, conditions, and weather — read aloud so your hands stay on the wheel.
Tap any stream for a deep-dive: topo maps, access notes, species info, regulations, scoring breakdown, and stream-specific hatch charts from local guide knowledge.
Every major trout water in Western North Carolina, plus the South Holston tailwater. Wild trout, delayed harvest, trophy sections, and tribal waters.
The streams we love need our help. That's why a portion of every subscription goes directly to the people restoring and protecting cold water fisheries.
For every active subscriber, we donate to Trout Unlimited's coldwater restoration projects — protecting the wild and native trout fisheries of Southern Appalachia for future generations of anglers.
