We fished out of McGinnis Ferry on Sunday, Jan 15th it was tough. We had a handful of fish, but still way below my expectations. We had one nice brown. I got home and went to feed the fish in my outdoor fish tank. They didn't eat, so something was definitely wrong with the weather.
Still a...
I hope everyone had a great holiday season!
The trout fishing has been really good!
The DNR is stocking trout in the Vinings / Paces ferry area for the first time in a couple of years. My son and I helped with a bucket brigade at Whitewater Creek. The DNR is even stocking some big Brook...
I had a decent summer down south on the hooch, I had a lot of days with big fish (over 20). But the numbers overall were pretty low, probably averaged 10-20 stripers per trip. I am about to start trout fishing regularly. I will post reports.
Last weekend I fished down in the gulf. Saturday and Sunday were red snapper season, but we fished Friday as well.
I stayed close all weekend, never getting more than about 14 miles out. Friday we had a 35 pound cobia, a nice gag grouper and a few mangrove snapper. And a bunch of big...
I have had a busy week on the Hooch north of West Point Lake.
Last Wednesday 4/27 I picked my son up from school and headed over to the Hooch. We only had about 3 hours and I had about 7-8 spots up and down the river I wanted to fish. Some spots we only made a single cast, it's amazing what...
I fished the hooch 4 days in the last week. I will post a fishing report, in my sponsor page. Subscribe to the fishing report thread to get the current reports. I will also post my articles and tutorials in my sponsor page down toward the bottom of the ODT.
Hey I have not fished up there much, but I will help you as much as I can. This thread has got me thinking and I am going to write a little about how to approach rivers, and current in general, I know everyone can't afford a guide trip. Give me a little time. I am headed to the river with my...
I keep my big boat down near St. George island. Just up the river at Bay City Lodge, Apalachicola. I try get down there once a month or so. But the weather has been very windy for offshore fishing the last couple of months.
About a year and a half ago I bought my Venice, Tuna captains old...
Fishing in rivers and streams is all about flow. The Hooch Especially. I know I seem like captain obvious, but it cannot be understated. The hydro electric dams dictate everything. Just to be safe on the water you need to watch the dams and the water level.
Here is the Army corps of...
I was not directing my comments at anyone. Thank you for helping clean up.
All people can suck. In my experience most of the time it's 5-10% of the people F--- it for everyone. From partying to politics it seems to be true...
Louisiana is the best fishing I have seen, it is the toilet of...
Sorry Brother, I had to go shoot pool in my 9-ball league.
From Buford down to Roswell Road, Hwy 9, it is primarily trout; stocker rainbows, and natural born browns. I have caught a hand full of spotted bass and a few yellow perch. There are some huge brown trout up to15-20 pounds. But you...
So in GA the EPD gives 4 different guidelines,
1) No restrictions
2) 1 meal per week
3) 1 meal per month
4) Do not eat
Lets just say the fish / body of water is in Catagory #3 One meal per month. If you eat one meal per month 12 months out of the year. For the next 35 years. You would...
Thanks to allot of hard work by volunteers, the CRK, and those bloody lawyers. The Hooch it cleaner today than it has been in probably 100 years.

Oh yeah the fishing can be great as well.
All of these were caught in the "Nasty" part of the River from Roswell down to about Chattahoochee hills.
