About the Chattahoochee
The Chattahoochee tailwater, or better known as the "HOOCH," is arguably the best trout water in the “Deep South.” Both the Chestatee and Chattahoochee Rivers originate in the vast Chattahoochee National Forest lands of the North Georgia Appalachian Mountains.
Trout Unlimited members across the state of Georgia voted the Chattahoochee as their number one trout destination in the state. These voters also selected the tailwater section as the feature river for Trout Unlimited TV which airs nationally on ESPN2. The fact that there is significant natural propagation (15%) among brown trout gives the river added credibility as an aesthetic and challenging fly fishing destination. Our impressive caddis fly hatches in the Spring bring the river alive with activity.
Our trips are dependent upon the ever-changing nature of the Chattahoochee and water levels.
