The current forecast for this weekend is projecting 90-100% rain starting in the late afternoon Friday through the evening Saturday. Be mindful of rain if you plan on getting out - wet and cold do not mix, but some of the best fishing can be had with inclement weather...

The Toccoa Tailwater is fishing well! This time of year, I like to focus on subsurface presentations, but we've been seeing some smaller caddis and Blue Winged Olives, so bring along some dry flies with you. Bigger, size 6-10 Pat's Rubber legs and stonefly patterns,...

The Toccoa Tailwater is fishing well and will continue to fish well into the winter. We've been seeing better water temperatures and received some much-needed rain in the last couple of days. Some of our guides have been seeing caddis coming off on the river in the...

The Toccoa Tailwater is still a little off color downstream from the creeks running in, but not unfishable; Tammen park and the dam are clear. I would focus on subsurface presentations: stonefly nymphs (Pat's RL, Double Bead Stone), Caddis larva/pupae (Holy Grails,...

The Toccoa Tailwater is going to be fishing very good very soon. Turnover water has passed, water has cleared at the dam, and water temperatures are dropping to conducive levels. We've received a good bit of rain this week, so the river may blow out this weekend, but...

The Etowah River is fishing well. The topwater bite on the river is getting very good, and this window may not last long, so come armed with a 5-7 weight with floating line and some Boogle Bugs, swim frogs, Pole Dancers, and Flat Freds. We're keeping some streamers on...

The Etowah River is starting to pick back up as the air and water cools. The popper bite should be very good for the next couple of weeks. I like to take a handful of boogle bugs and a 5 or 6 weight out and if the popper bite doesn't cooperate, I'll fish some streamer...

The Etowah River is still hot. The switch should flip any day now - water temperatures should start to drop with the air temperature. When this happens, the  bass bite on the river should be very good. I recommend throwing topwater poppers and swim frogs early and...

The Etowah River is fishing okay when conditions allow. Water temperatures out of the dam are peaking at 82 degrees. Keep an eye on the USGS gauges - if the temperature drops, we're going to be looking at some very good bass fishing in the river. If you're headed out...

The Etowah River is hit or miss. We're seeing water temperatures in the low 80's coming out of the dam, so get out there early or late and throw some topwater for bass. I like boogle bugs, swim frogs, and pole dancers, but it's a dealer's choice out there. Watch the...
