I believe For My Son is referring to the Little Pigeon River, it does have good smallmouth and does hold some trout as well. There are a number of quality streams to fish in the area, but you may have to drive a little to get to them. There are streams located in the Great Smoky Mountain National Forest, some of these hold wild trout while others are stocked. There are tail-water rivers in the area, the Clinch which you will cross over just above the Clinton Tn exit, this is the tail-water of Norris and is an awesome river for trout, walleye and stripers. Cherokee dam which is the Holston River, is yet another great tail-water fishery. I would definitely take my fishing gear, plenty of opportunities to fish down there, I go there to fish about twice a month. Make sure to get a license and make sure to read the regulations relative to the stream/area you are fishing.
