Got to my house after driving around 20 hours straight south to Georgia, threw my suitcase in the house and drove straight to the river. I knew I had four days of hard fishing before the moving truck, wife and kids arrived at the airport. I spent all four days staying close to home nymphing the deep water runs of the Chattahoochee at Buford Dam, Jones Bridge and Island Ford area which is a few minutes from my house. The temperature averaged around 100 those four days but the fishing was great. Most fish were content with holding tight to the bottom right on the edge of the current seams and preferred eating caddis larva or pheasants. Great start to my new adventure in the south...looking forward to hitting some smaller water in the North Georgia Mountains this fall.
Stay tuned....

Last time out in MA


Sorry for the late update...been busy for the past few months. Moved the family to Georgia for work and currently chasing wild brookies, browns, and Rainbows in the North Georgia Mountains. Also spending alot of time on the Chattahoochee River which is the major tailwater down here. A surprisingly good fishery being so close to the city of Atlanta.
Anyways had a chance to get to the Swift for one last go. Ended up with a dozen or so to hand including my last which I called it a day on shown here. Great last day in New England. I will update everyone on my southern adventure within the next few weeks.
