About Your Trip

If you're looking for a more immersive and hands-on experience, our guided wade trips on the Toccoa River are a fantastic way to connect with the water and get closer to the action. With your boots in the river and a fly rod in hand, you'll explore crystal-clear pools, riffles, and deep runs, all while casting to wild brown and rainbow trout in some of the most scenic and productive stretches of water in North Georgia.

Led by Ben’s experienced team of local guides, these wade trips are ideal for anglers of all skill levels. Whether you're a beginner looking to learn the fundamentals or a seasoned fly fisher refining your technique, you'll receive personalized instruction, local insight, and the chance to fish water that’s hand-picked for the conditions that day.
