W4F - Camping and Fly Fishing Pisgah National Forest Davidson River, NC
Ken Tanaka is back. This time camping and fly fishing in Pisgah National Forest on the Davidson River in North Carolina. Camping with kids can be awesome but also difficult. Here are some great camping tips. I was taking my 4 year old out camping for the first time and this is a fantastic place to bring a little one. So many activities around that area. Fly Fishing, Pisgah Center for Wildlife Education, Bobby N. Setzer State Fish Hatchery, Pisgah Ranger Station, Looking Glass Rock, Looking Glass Falls and Sliding Rock. It's also close to Brevard and Asheville as well.
Parking for the campsite is at the Wildlife Education Center and the campsite is only a 5-10min walk along the Davidson River.

Nick Fly Fishing - Davidson River Pisgah Forest N.C. - Guide Ken Hardwick - July 2014
No words can explain this experience. Ken Hardwick was outstanding and if not one of the best guides out there. If you're ever out in Brevard / Rossman are in North Carolina, look up Ken and book a trip with Ken. On this day, I landed nearly 30 fish. I plan on returning this October for some more action. Thank you Ken.

Midgin - Fly fishing the Davidson River in North Carolina
Midgin is a video by Wild Fly Productions fished at the Davidson River in North Carolina. Scottie and close buddy Shane hit the road early on a cold November Morning hoping to get into a few fish. The day consisted mainly of Midge fishing while high stick nymphing. Majority of our fish were caught on blood and zebra midges tending to be 20-22's...yeah pretty small flies!
