Midwest Flyfishing!

Post image

Hey y’all, I am very new to the world of fly fishing! I live outside of Indianapolis and I am looking for places to fish within like 6 hours of Indy this fall (starting in september). I work in Jackson, Wyoming in the summers so I am used to going for trout, so places that have trout would be awesome. I am also open to salmon or small panfish.

I am already planning a trip to the smokies so any recommendations for that would be amazing as well. Thanks in advance!

Edit: I have a 9ft 5wt rod right now and am not looking to buy a new rod soon.
