The Chattahoochee River is one of three rivers in the world within close proximity to a major city, which has a thriving, self-sustaining population of Trout. While most people would not associate great Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout fishing with a major city like Atlanta, you'll be impressed with the extensive greenway park system that connects the many small towns along the Chattahoochee in the greater metro area with vast riparian areas designed to protect Atlanta's drinking water.

There are 48 river miles of designated trout water with over 9,000 acres of protected park lands managed by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and the National Park Service. The cool waters released from the depths of Lake Sidney Lanier at Buford dam provide an ideal environment for trout and other wildlife species. The flora and fauna abound along the river with frequent sightings of white tail deer, osprey, beaver, otter, muskrat, mink, raccoons and much more.

In the Fall of 2003 Charlie Ford landed the new state record Brown Trout which weighed over 18lbs. and rainbows in the 16 to 20 inch range are not uncommon!
