Why the Name Katala Outdoors ?
Katala (pronounced Ka-tah-la) is a variation on a Cherokee word, attalla, which means mountain. In Sanskrit, Katala is a type of big fish. Since Katala Outdoors is headquartered and operating in the mountains of Western North Carolina, with a long proud heritage of Cherokee culture, and since we are all about catching big fish, the name is perfect!
