Roswell Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in Roswell
River temps coming out of Buford Dam are in the high 40's Fahrenheit just look at that fog in the background. Trout are biting most properly presented nymphs with some dries to imitate terrestrial summer bugs. Striped bass will be around in the lower stretches of River before they migrate south in October.

The deep Bite is on lake Lanier continues to be good in the heat. Down rods are most productive way to catch them baits 40 to 55 is a good place to start 86 water temps this week. Spoons and leadcore is also a great way to get reaction bites. Main channels and river channel seem to be the most productive.

The fishing bite on Lake Lanier is turning on quick with warmer temperature to 77 degrees this past week fish are feeding on free lines boards and down rods have also been productive, the morning bite and days with low lite sky's have been really productive. Last week did come across some active fish schooling on top water, caught 2 great fish on topwater lures one fish 18lbs.

Despite the recent but much needed rains the River is running clear and cold below Buford Dam. This 40 mile Chattahoochee River Tailwater section will be fishable all summer long.(notice the fog in the background/ air temperature on the river are 20-30F cooler!😨) The brown trout population is all wild stream bred and the rainbows are stocked but hold over for 2-3years taking on wild characteristics with brilliant coloration. Deadrift nymphs for numbers and strip streamers for quality trophy fish.

The Chattahoochee Tailwater is running 47F from Buford Dam and will remain in the high 40's low 50's all summer long! Caddis and Mayfly hatches are tapering down but BWO's will continue to hatch all summer on overcast and rainy days. Nymphs and streamer tactics will produce big browns.

Remnants of the caddisfly hatch linger and light Cahill mayflies are emerging so larvae, pupae and adult fly patterns that imitate these life stages are producing. Streamers can be good during lowlight windows early morning or late evening and during overcast weather conditions.

Get ready for the adult caddis to lay eggs and spend their life cycle with spent adults, making for some dry fly action this April. Shoal and white bass are running with stripers following on spring runs.

The caddis hatch is on! For the next month through April the caddisfly life cycle will take place throughout the River making for some great dry fly action. There is nothing better than watching a trout rise to your surface fly!

Winter is not over, so look no further because here is your sure cure for cabin fever! With sudden warming trends, we have seen some good BWO and Little Winter Stones attracting fish to the surface for some dry fly action. When there is no visible rising fish, we can always fall back on nymphs on a dry dropper rig or two or three nymphs dropped under an indicator. I certain conditions, the streamer enthusiast can trigger some "t-bone" strikes from some heavier predatory trout.

Fishing with Nick was great! Put us on some fish and we pulled in some nice spotted bass along with strippers. Definitely would recommend Nick and we look forward to our next opportunity to fish with Nick.
