Fishing

Foscoe, being centered in the heart of the High Country, is near some of the best High Country fishing. The headwaters of the Watauga River originate near Foscoe and the river runs through our valley featuring great trout fishing. Our park and community center even has river frontage.

Other rivers in the area include the New River, Elk River, the Linville River, Elk Creek, and more. Lake fishing could include Price Lake, Bass Lake, Trout Lake, Wildcat Lake, Watauga Lake, and more.

Not all sections of these rivers or lakes are open to the public, so make sure you check your location before fishing. You can also hire a guide like Foscoe Fishing to take you on a fishing trip.

North Carolina requires a fishing license in many instances so check local laws before fishing.
