                                Eight working lakes, providing services including power generation and flood control, span the foothills from Wilkes County to the South Carolina border. One of the most well-known is Lake Lure. The lakes also provide such recreational activities as boating and fishing.

                                Dean recommends a fishing trip to the state's mountain lakes because the waters contain such a great variety of game fish, an angler never knows what he is going to catch next. He discusses each species; what is the best lake to catch them in; what time of year to fish for them; tactics; and lures or bait.

                                Lake Jocassee has wonderful water quality and is thus one of the most popular freshwater dive sites on the East Coast. The lake was formed after Duke Energy built a dam in the area.
