I used the "when to fish" chart to determine when I would get to the river to fish.  I stepped into the water at 10 am and left at 12 noon. 

The trout were feeding heavily.  I averaged catching a trout every 4
minutes.  It was terrific.  The Watauga River can be very difficult to fish when the fish get selective or when they just stop feeding. 

 Instead of me getting up before daylight to go fishing and not knowing if the trout would be feeding or not, I used the outdoorphd when to fish chart and slept in and ambled on over around 10 am. The chart predicted 10 am till 1 pm as a good time to fish.
