Yes and there a couple times a year at least. Awesome place and blue ribbon fishery. BWOs should be the ticket right now.
Lots of these usually:

And once in a while I get to touch one of these when the knots hold.

I sure do! Warm water fly fishing mainly for perch, crappie and bass. We have a nice year round trout fishery in SE Oklahoma at the lower mountain fork river.

Do a lot of salt water fly fishing here in south Florida plus some fresh water bass and pan fish. Would love to try some trout fishing sometime. Chief

Man south Florida? All I can think of is bonefish! My favorite fish on fly. Tarpon n permit too. Got a really good idea next time I head down to catch permit on fly.

Cut my teeth on the South fork of the Holston River.  Moved away when I was 17 and I miss the Browns and Rainbows that we took from this fishery.  I loved the tranquilty of fishing this river.

Sure do, flyfishing and turkey hunting are my favorite hobbies. I flyfish exclusively for trout and fish year round thanks to the wonderful limestone streams we have in central Pennsylvania. I try to stay away from stockies and concentrate on our wild fish. Flyfishing is very addicting just like turkey hunting! In the spring I turkey hunt in the morning and then flyfish the afternoon!!

My best friend lives on the Holston, guides a little.  It's one of my favorite places in the world.  Just beautiful.

One of our favorite things to do, I was introduced to it on the Yellowstone when working on a gold plant in Gardiner, fly fishes in Washington state while working there. Now that we're back home in Arkansas we go to the Red whenever the oppertunity offers, also fly fish for brim and bass

Yessir. Grew up saltwater flyfishing in the north east for striped bass and bluefish.  We also did a lot of trout fishing in the rivers before turkey season and spring striper migration.  Since moving to Texas I haven't done much. 

We did get out bonefishing quite a bit on our honeymoon in Belize lately.  What a blast that was.  Probably caught 50 of them on my 9 weight.  I was like a ninja sneaking out in the mornings before she woke up for a couple hours of fishing.

It got crazy here yesterday eve. Been seeing some activity on the pond the last couple weeks. Investigated with an 8 weight and streamers. Worked down the pond catching small bass.
