About this ebook
This eBook is an actual account of Jim & Ed's (along with several friends and family members) guided drift fly fishing adventure on the Clinch River in northeastern Tennessee. The book features lots of nature photography. The book setting is the Clinch River in the vicinity of Clinton, TN. The fishermen find places to wade and drift fish on the river. The tackle, boats, techniques, wildlife spotted, and river flow conditions are described; and pictures of the fish caught illustrate the adventure to be experienced along the river.
This eBook is the fourth in the "Where's Jim & Ed?" adventure series. Fall is a great season to go drift fly fishing for trout. The scenery is spectacular, the weather is great, and the river provides a beautiful setting for Jim & Ed's adventure. The pictures in the book show all the details of this nature adventure.
Anyone interested in fly fishing and/or nature adventures will enjoy this light-hearted book.
