We are Turning Stone’s Fly Fishing, LLC. Welcome to our website, we are glad that you stopped by. It is our goal to make each day on the river one that you will remember forever. We want you to have stories to tell others. After all, a good fishing story is always a favorite.

We are a full-service, independent fly fishing guide operation in the town of Franklin, in western North Carolina. Turning Stone’s Fly Fishing was started in 2007 by Gordon Vanderpool. It was Gordon’s goal to help others with the sport that he loved so much. We hope you will look around the website, and come visit and fly fish in the beautiful Smoky Mountains of western North Carolina.

It doesn’t matter if you are from just down the road, or from across the globe. We want you to see the wonderful fly fishing that western North Carolina has to offer.
