Nantahala National Forest, North Carolina
532,900 acres of public ground in Macon, Graham, Cherokee, Jackson counties, managed by US Forest Service. 846 named streams run through it, of which 799 are designated trout water — 1438.3 miles of it. It is in the state's huntable-land layer.
Open in BirdTroutThis unit — the ground this page is about
Other public land — state, federal and county ground around it
USGS gauge — a gauge, coloured by what it reads now
Water temperature
— the colour of every stream on this ground
50°F and colder is cold, through cold-transitional and cool, to warm above 70°F — the same four bands the app paints. The colour is NC Wildlife Resources Commission's own classification of the stream, not a measurement, except at the gauge dots, which read live. Grey is water NC Wildlife Resources Commission has not typed.
The unit in numbers
Assembled from the state huntable public-land layer and PAD-US ownership records, dissolved into one block: the section lines a state forest is surveyed in are not a fact about access, so they are not drawn and not counted twice.

Getting on it
Open to the public without a permit, as PAD-US records it. State licence and season rules still apply.
This unit is 194 separate blocks of ground rather than one, which is normal for public land held in surveyed sections: the blocks are not contiguous. The map above draws every one of them, and the ground between two of them belongs to somebody else. Boundaries, closures and anything posted on the ground are USDA Forest Service's to say.
Trout streams on this ground
Every named stream whose reaches touch this unit, longest first. 429 of them have a page of their own and are linked; the rest are in the app. The class column is NC Wildlife Resources Commission's designation of that stream, over the reaches it has classified. "Now" is the live USGS reading where a gauge stands in that stream.

Hunting
This ground is in North Carolina's huntable public-land layer as national forest, managed by US Forest Service — 100% of the unit is covered by it. The seasons below are the 2026–2027 small-game seasons as the state's own digest publishes them; they are statewide except where a species is zoned, and the bars run 1 September to 31 August.
Ruffed grouse
12 Oct – 28 Feb
North Carolina requires hunter orange — a cap or hat, or an outer garment visible from all sides — for anyone hunting grouse, pheasant or quail with a firearm. Turkey is not on that list and woodcock is not either. NCWRC does not publish a bag limit on its season-dates sheet and we could not confirm one elsewhere, so none is shown — check the Regulations Digest. The season is statewide because NCWRC writes it statewide. The bird is not: ruffed grouse in North Carolina are a western mountain species, in and around the Blue Ridge and the Nantahala and Pisgah forests, and the population there has fallen hard with the loss of young forest.
Northern bobwhite
21 Nov – 28 Feb
North Carolina requires hunter orange — a cap or hat, or an outer garment visible from all sides — for anyone hunting grouse, pheasant or quail with a firearm. Turkey is not on that list and woodcock is not either. NCWRC does not publish a bag limit on its season-dates sheet and we could not confirm one elsewhere, so none is shown — check the Regulations Digest. The Piedmont and the coastal plain are the quail ground, and NCWRC runs an active restoration programme on it — the CURE co-operative and its focal landscapes are the reason North Carolina's bobwhite story is not simply the decline it is elsewhere.
American woodcock
10 Dec – 30 Jan
Daily bag 3, possession 9. Migratory bird: HIP certification is required in addition to the hunting licence. North Carolina sits near the southern end of the Atlantic flyway, so the season opens late — the birds arrive on hard cold fronts in December rather than living here in October. Not on NCWRC's hunter-orange list, which names grouse, pheasant and quail. The possession limit is three times the daily bag.
Wild turkey (spring)
17 Apr – 15 May, 10 Apr – 11 Apr
NCWRC does not publish a bag limit on its season-dates sheet and we could not confirm one elsewhere, so none is shown — check the Regulations Digest. North Carolina has no fall turkey season. This is the state's only one, and unlike Michigan's and Virginia's fall hunts it takes male or bearded birds only. Turkey is not on NCWRC's hunter-orange list. A youth season runs the weekend before the general opener.
Ring-necked pheasant
zoned — see below
Zoned — North Carolina publishes this season by zone, and this page does not place this unit in one, so no season bar is drawn. Seasons by zone — Remainder of the state: 5 Sep – 28 Feb; Barrier islands of Carteret, Dare and Hyde counties: 21 Nov – 28 Feb. North Carolina requires hunter orange — a cap or hat, or an outer garment visible from all sides — for anyone hunting grouse, pheasant or quail with a firearm. Turkey is not on that list and woodcock is not either. NCWRC does not publish a bag limit on its season-dates sheet and we could not confirm one elsewhere, so none is shown — check the Regulations Digest. Two seasons, and the short one is the real one. The barrier islands of Carteret, Dare and Hyde carry a naturalised population hunted as a wild bird, male only. The statewide either-sex season is long and permissive because the mainland birds being shot under it are released ones. Neither boundary is drawn in this app.
Hunter orange: Anyone hunting bear, feral swine, rabbit, squirrel, grouse, pheasant or quail with a firearm must wear a cap or hat of hunter orange, or an outer garment of hunter orange visible from all sides. It applies to hunting grouse, pheasant or quail with a firearm, except when hunting wild turkey, woodcock and waterfowl.
North Carolina allows Sunday hunting on private land with some limits, and restricts it on many public game lands. The per-game-land rule is not carried in this app — check the game land before you go.
Access sites and amenities
No public access site we have on record stands on this unit. We hold no trail or campground data at all, so what is here is what the state publishes as launches and walk-in access, and none of it falls on this ground.
When to come
The hatch calendar for the North Carolina mountains, which is the region this unit's centre falls in — the same regions the app's hatch panel uses. It is a regional record, not a survey of this ground: nobody has counted insects unit by unit. Year-round records (midges, scuds, sculpins) are left out. The seasons above are the other half of this calendar: the water is best before the ground is.

What makes this unit distinctive
The Nantahala is the most trout-dense block of public ground on this site: 799 of the 846 named streams touching its 532,900 acres are NCWRC-designated trout water — 94% — across Macon, Graham, Cherokee and Jackson counties. The Tuckasegee runs 67.7 miles through it carrying all four of NCWRC's regimes, Catch and Release with artificial flies and lures only among them; the Nantahala River runs 50.1 miles with Delayed Harvest, Hatchery Supported and Wild Trout water on it, the Valley River 31.5, the Chattooga 27.6 as Wild Trout and the Cullasaja 25.9 Hatchery Supported. The Hiwassee's 82.4 miles are undesignated. It is 194 separate parts, and it reaches four subbasins from the Seneca on the escarpment to the Pigeon. PAD-US records it open access.
Regulations
Nothing on this page is a regulation. The fishing rules that apply to the water on this ground — the types, the seasons, the size limits and the gear restrictions — are on the North Carolina fishing regulations page, built from the agency's own columns. The hunting seasons above come from the state's hunting digest, read against the 2026 licence year.
