John went out just recently with a guide from down there and tore up the bows. He called me at 3 pm and told me he was up to 40 fish already.
He had to send me the photos to gloat. Thought would share them.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a
precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think,
to enjoy, to love.

John unleashed today north of Atlanta
John was Manager for now defunct Madison Outfitters
in Madison Wisconsin (A Real Fly Shop)
When he wasn't guiding or managing the store, he fished with me.
His wife was transferred and promoted for Oscar Meyer. The family was
involuntarily moved to Georgia.
John is now a "kept" man. He finds time between his trips out west to hunt to
fish a few times a year north of Atlanta. John caught both of these on size
6 San Juan worms fished downstream in crystal clear 2 feet of water.
John manages to come up by me every spring to fish with "The Trout Hunter."
John's wife gave him birthday present
John got a birthday present from his wife. She
got a guided trip in northern georgia. He told me
he caught his age in fish and went home
Fishing the Great Beyond
WOW, What a day. Happy for you guys.
Nice fishes. Thanks for the posts and the pics. Jim
I'm either going to, coming from or thinking about fishing. Jim
Georgia isn't that far away from me.... I might have to take a trip and buy another states fishing license. Really nice fish and happy birthday!
A few years ago all I wanted for my birthday was a birthday stealhead. I got it and went home also...
Nice fish !
I have to ask if some of the fish in the pics are steelhead.
Cheers,

Hmmmm
Looks a lot like a Nacoochee bend type area.... I've seen some of those monsters before...and yes anyone close to North Georgia definately needs to check 'em out.
Just a thought!
Nice Fish, thanks for sharing
That would be quite odd if they were, because we do not have steelhead indigenous to Georgia. The closest there would be would be the Great Lakes Tributaries in IN and OH.Originally Posted by MontanaMoose
There is a few places like that in GA that are cornfed operations that produce some Purina trophies. Our streams are not particularly fertile, and few are capable of producing consistently large fish like that.
