Water flows exiting the Buford Dam is hovering at 50-53 so even though we are experiencing cooler air temperatures the fish are happy and active all winter long because of our unique thermocline in Lake Lanier. Consistent dry fly in the afternoons with hatches of Little Winter Stones, BWO's and Midges. Post spawn activity with the brown trout still aggressive on nymphs and streamers.

Lake Sidney Lanier has stratified making for cool clear water flowing from Buford Dam. Big browns are on the prowl with the fall spawn winding down. Streamer action should be good all this winter . Winter hatches of BWO's , Little Winter Stones and midges should bring some rising pods of trout to the surface.

Shorter days and cooler weather will trigger aggressive spawning behavior with the brown trout this November through January with specimen trout to the net. Streamer fishing will just get better as the Winter progresses. Also some really good BWO mayfly hatches will brings pods of fish to the surface most afternoons making for some consistent dry fly action.

    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.
