Additionally, cloudy gray days with rain also fish better since the baleful eye of the spring and summer sun don't warm the creek waters as profoundly. As previously stated, you can fish here year round with the appropriate license and permit, but the best hatches of the year are from May to July.
It may be worth your while to pay for a permit to fish on a private section of Spruce Creek if you can find room in your budget.

The stay at the Hemlock Lodge hit on all cylinders as I was able to park my car on Wednesday and never had to get back into it until my trip ended on Saturday.
Spruce Creek offers challenging fly fishing, enough stream for a three day trip and big healthy native browns and rainbows that will test any blood knot. What I liked most was being able to get up and be on the stream by 6 AM and go at my own pace till late in the evening.
The lodge accommodations were extremely comfortable and Andrew, your breakfast, lunch and dinners were well prepared and thought out. Thanks again for your hospitality and a memorable and truly relaxing three days on Spruce Creek.
Sincerely, Vince K. Richmond VA. Beautiful creek goes on for miles on this property. The guide service is everything you could want. The fish are beautiful and the waters are right next to the lodge. The lodge is in excellent shape, comfortable and perfect for me. The creek has the best dry fly fishing I have ever done and the early morning streamer fishing is something that you just have to try - words can't describe it! I really like that Tom helps out, you get a little new school and some good old school tips.
The lodge is unreal and the food was out of this world and let's not forget the beer tasting at the end of dinner. I would give this fishing trip 5 stars!!! Thank you, Andrew.
