    Those stocked trout will be in the places like they came from, gentle runs with enough distortion to make them feel safe from above. Lot like the concrete runs at the hatchery. Should be a good year for wild trout with all the rain we had this summer. Next couple years should be good.

    The tooga has always been fun. Usually a few days after they are released is a good time. I have always started at burrels and fished up towards the hatchery. Great times!

    Burrell's Ford was the southernmost point that I started from... I like smaller water and more seclusion.

    Not the best fly fishing venue, but I used to wear out small browns with ultralight spinning tackle working up the East Branch. When it was time to hike out, my cardio was put to the test going up the mountain.

    My other favorite spots I'm keeping mum on, but they required a Georgia license.

    yeah for spinning I had great luck with the yellow and black rooster tail on a 2lb. line unltra lite rod and spinning reel. But climbing back up the mountain crawling under the laurle was tough.
