    WHAT WE'RE ABOUT

    Southern One Fly is a three day fly fishing event with a one day tournament intended to celebrate the life and legend of Dave Whitlock while supporting Coosa Riverkeeper's efforts to protect the skinny water. 


    This tournament is unique to the by limiting participants to fish on the Coosa River and its tributaries while using only one color and Southern fly pattern through the day, which is slightly challenging yet still welcoming to anglers of all skill levels. Participants will be targeting members of the Black Bass family, making this event even more special!
