Despite all the much needed rain that we have been getting the past two months. The lake temps are staying 49-53 degrees and it is keeping the fish biting, even the largemouths have been moving up feeding. We’ve been catching fish on Blue Ridge, Carters, Hiwassee, Parksville and Lanier the past couple of weeks. The lures we’ve been using is the dropshot, shakey head, jigs, float-n-fly. Now is a good time to be fishing, if the mornings are to cold for you, book a mid-day to afternoon trip.

Check out my last fly fishing tips post on Gink & Gasoline.

If you attach your split shot too tight on your tippet it can weaken its strength significantly. Try using these two alternatives for attaching your split-shot to your nymph rig.

For those of you who don’t know already I”m dedicating most of my time blogging on my other blog Gink & Gasoline. For each of my G&G posts during the week I will post a picture and a link here where you can click the link to read the full article. I still will be posting guide trip fishing reports for both trout and bass and will also post on local fishing related material here as I’ve done the last four years. My fly fishing tips and story content will just be used from the G&G blog.

January Fishing Report for North Georgia
With all the rain lately, I’ve felt like a wet dog on the water. I cannot remember a winter where we had so much rain. A few trips have been cancelled because of it but I’m actually very thankful because it’s really going to help out our water table in the long run. If we continue to get rain through the spring we could sustain average or better water levels through summer. Wouldn’t that be a treat, heck yeah.
Fishing has been good particularly at Noontootla Creek Farms. The wild rainbows are starting to get their spawning colors and all the trout are fighting like their trying to win a UFC championship fight. Moreover, air temperatures have been in the mid 50s during the afternoon. It’s made for some really enjoyable fishing and it looks like it’s going to stay that way. Get up here and do some fly fishing. If you’re looking for guided fishing trip please give us a call. We’ve got you covered whether you want to bass fish on the lake or fly fish trout on public or private water.
I feel like the TVA has been sticking it to us lately. Just like the crazy rain situation this winter, I’ve also never seen such a inconsistent generation schedule. It’s been all over the place the last two months making it very difficult to pull off float trips. The TVA for some reason has been preferring to generate during the daylight morning hours, cutting it off around 10 or 12 am. That leaves us with a very small window and small area of water we can fish, and it’s not ideal. When we have been able to get on the river we’ve had really good days followed by so so days. On a positive note there’s been pretty good Blue Winged Olive, Midge, and Caddis hatches during mid day especially. I’m hoping this is a sign our hatches will be better this year, providing us better dry fly fishing. February and March are really good months to be on the Toccoa River. Give us a call if you want to set up a guided float trip.
Eric Welch will be reporting on the bass fishing later this week for all you bass anglers.

We’ve been busy the past week, putting fish in the boat. Some days it’s numbers and then some days it’s the big ones. That’s what I love about fall and winter fishing. Im catching fish on tubes, dropshot, and float-n-fly. Alot of people think once it’s winter time and the water temp gets cold that it’s harder to catch fish, they think you have to change the way you fish and not use the same lures as you do in the summer. Thats not true, I fish the dropshot and tube all year long, you just have to fish slower and learn to feel the bite. So if your ready to catch fish give us a call now.
We would like to wish everyone a safe and Happy Holidays

While most people was getting up early to go save on there shopping. I woke up this morning needing a smallmouth fix. So where better to head then Lake Nantahala. The water temp is 56 degree and the water is so clear you can see 12 feet under the boat. Today we caught 28 fish, 8 largemouth and 20 smallmouth. we caught our fish on shakey heads and tubes today. If your looking to catch smallmouth give us a call now.

I had the opportunity of guiding Todd Whittler and his father in law this morning for a 1/2 day trip on Blue Ridge. Besides the 20 mph winds, these guys got to see how great fall fishing can be in the mountains. The wind kept us off most of our good areas to fish, so we had to work our magic back in the pockets where the wind did’nt blow as bad. The water temp was 59-60 degrees, and we caught all our fish dropshooting 4.5 RoboWorms. Now is the time to book a bass trip, were catching lots of fish and there getting bigger and meaner each day.

We got out last week on Parksville Lake and Lake Blue Ridge, If your looking to catch some fish now is the time. On Parksville we caught 42 spotted bass fishing 4.5 RoboWorms on dropshot. On Blue Ridge one day we caught 46 and the next day we caught 35 using RoboWorms on dropshot and tube baits. We are starting to catch a few smallies on Blue Ridge since the water temp has droped to 59 degrees. If you want to catch numbers or take a kid fishing for fun, there is no better time to fish then the fall. Call use now to book a trip.

It’s our busy guide season, and with me taking on another blog (Gink & Gasoline), it’s honestly getting really hard to stay ahead. I’ve posted below five popular posts from last Oct/Nov that you may have missed. They’ll give you an idea of what the fishing is like for both trout and bass during the fall. Check them out, and if you like what you see give us a call and we’ll set you up on one of our guided fishing trips. Trout fishing and bass fishing are both very productive in the fall. And you’ll more than likely enjoy some of the most pleasant fishing temperatures during the year. Beautiful weather, fall colors, and great fishing. That’s hard to beat.
