Little River Fly Fishing: Located in DuPont State Forest in eastern Transylvania County, the Little River is the most recent stream in our area to be designated Delayed Harvest (which is catch-and-release from October through May.) In season, the state stocks 3,425 fish along just 1.8 miles of river between Lake Dense and Hooker Falls, making for a dense fish population. Despite its name, the Little River is fairly wide and open throughout, and is easily accessed via the Hooker Falls Road and High Falls Trail. Deep-nymphing the plunge pools below the falls is usually productive, but there several long pools and runs below the Staton Road bridge for dry fly fans.
