You have to check in and register at the lodge. From there you continue on 356 to the first road on the right, very short distance and easy to miss if you've never been there. Turn right and follow several hundred yards to the parking lot on the left (pay lot). From there it's a short walk to the creek. If you walk down the road you will see the big hole at the bridge. I've caught many out of that hole and upstream to the dam.

Thanks Kbrunson I’ve been out a couple times since I’ve been back from break and have caught a few stripers but nothing to write home about, most of the guys I work with are big Time trout fishermen so I’ve spent most of my time off trying to step up my trout game

Do I park my car at the Unicoi Park and walk in from there? Should I head downstream?

Good luck. We were there today and the fishing was good. Got 7 to net. I recommend getting there early though. Lots of people at the park.

Is the lot/lodge in the park on Unicoi Bottoms road off of 356?

Im sure I can figure this out but just trying to make the most of my time.

Any idea if they’ll be open New Year’s Day? I’m going stop into Unicoi Outfitters today, too. So I can ask them more details.

The lodge is on the right shortly past the lake.

The lodge is on the right shortly after passing the lake.
