It has been designated by the U.S. Department of Interior as one of the cleanest rivers in the Eastern United States. Sandbars and steep rocky banks are just a part of the scene. You may also see ducks, raccoons, whitetail deer and numerous species of waterfowl. The river harbors multiple species of fish and mussels. Crayfish, salamanders, frogs and turtles keep things interesting. The best fishing is for spotted bass and bream, but red-eye bass, black bass, crappie, carp and catfish are plentiful. Each season offers a special view. Spring brings mountain laurel and azaleas. With fall comes a different palate of blazing colors.
