  1. We’ve countless style choices but we’ve got the actual tumbleweed organization producing smaller and easier homes , truly 90 feet square property which can be surely used ? this kind of distinction involving elegant patterns and the like simple contemplating . This is actually the most interesting thing regarding internal planning * regardless how huge the location can be , we can still think about very good home styles from it.

Are you Owning the Hatch or Just Getting By?

Posted By on January 23, 2012

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.

December fishing

Posted By on December 21, 2011

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

Fall Fishing on Blue Ridge Lake

Posted By on November 23, 2011

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.

Mountain Lakes are Fishing Great

Posted By on November 7, 2011

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.

Five Popular Post from Last Oct/Nov

Posted By on October 26, 2011

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.

Fishing Report for East TN & NC

Posted By on October 14, 2011

Fishing Reports for the Watuaga, S. Holston and Tuckasegee Rivers

Just got a fishing report from Ryan Dunne, who runs trips for Reel Job Fishing in East Tennessee and North Carolina. Dave Grossman also runs trips for us up there as well so we can handle two boat floats no problem. Just make sure you call ahead of time.

Watauga River

The Watauga River below Wilbur Dam in Elizabethton, TN is fishing well despite the low water. It is leaf season, so this is a great time for not only trout fishing but scenery as well. Fish are being caugtht on BWO’s, Craneflies, Midges, and Caddis. Although decent hatches do occur this time of year, most fish are being caught subsurface. We offer floats on four different sections of the river, but our most popular float is the Quality Trout Zone. The Watauga resembles a large freestone stream, so there are many different types of water and fishing situations to experience. One minute you will be nymphing a fast run and the next you’ll be throwing dries on a long slick. The next bend you may pound the bank with streamers for a chance at a trophy fish. Browns are on the move and getting ready to spwan, so use caution when fishing the river. The Watauga River is a great river for beginners to catch good numbers of trout and improve their skills.

South Holston River

The South Holston is located near Bristol, TN and it’s a bug factory. It is known for its browns and technical fishing. We offer high and low water floats on the river.The So Ho as she’s called is fishing very well. BWO’s are starting to show up and sulphurs are still around. Midges are plentiful as usual. Don’t overlook the scud population though, they produce year round.On low water we typically fish light nymph rigs or tandem dry dropper rigs. On high water floats we fish heavy nymph rigs, streamers, and when the bugs are hatching we throw dry flies. All the browns in the So Ho are wild! We recommend this fishery for intermediate to advanced anglers. Keep in mind the South Holston closes several sections for spawning starting in November.

Tuckasegee River

The Tuckasegee “Tuck” River is located in Sylva, NC. We typically float the Delayed Harvest section due to the high concentrations of brown, rainbow and brook trout. The state has recently stocked the river for the beginning of the delayed harvest season and fishing is really hot. Fish are being taken on various attractor nymphs and dries. Streamers are working as well. Keep in mind float trips are dependent on water flows. So if you call to book a trip and generation schedules do not cooperate we’ll recommend another river to guide you on.

Float Trips in North Carolina are $400 per boat. Give us a call to reserve your spot. Lastly, if you happen to get our voicemail, please be patient for our return call. We’re probably on the river guiding and we don’t like to answer phones when we’re working.

Keep it Reel,

  1. Your article looks great! Thanks for you sharing. I love it.


  2. the the outstanding small mini netbook computer laptop or computer, I personally put it on performing due diligence and also programming, apart from that it is not perfect meant for anything else, the particular screen is they cannot view something the particular annonceur good quality is alright even though nil unique.


  3. I am seeking advice: My husband is a fly fishing enthusiast and has a birthday coming up this week. One of his goals/dreams has been for his wife (moi) and daughters to ‘want’ to go fishing with him some day. So we have decided to surprise him this year with a fly fishing weekend away with us. Can you please help?

    I know very little about the sport (except I do know how to cast and fly fish a bit – he taught me when we first met and dated 18 years ago) and where’s a good place to go this time of year in GA.

    We live in Woodstock. I researched top fly fishing places and narrowed down to heading to Helen, GA, area so that we’d have good restaurants, etc. as well, unless you recommend otherwise.

    Any recommendations where exactly to go fishing near there? A good B&B or hotel to stay there? Any ‘must do’ for the fly fishing enthusiast?

    Please advise. My email:josephlimer@comcast.net.
    thanks,
    AJ
