Ozzie Loc: Central Florida

I just bought a cabin in Blue Ridge....close mid Jan.....hope to be able to meet a few local fishermen and get active there this spring and summer.....love fly fishing for trout but am a novice at it....generally been a bass spin fish guy.....am somewhat limited physically at age 83.....anyone out there in the Fannin county area?

Try unicoi state park and smithgall woods. Both state owned. Reservations needed at smithgall. Toccoa river good fishing, but wading and access difficult

flyguy Loc: Lake Onalaska, Sunfish Capitol of the World!

Congratulation on your purchase, Ozzie. At 83, please be careful and carry a walking stick if you are wading.

Ozzie If you go to Tammen Park off Hwy 53 they have stairs and a ramp there to get into the river also most of the time there's people around to get you up if you fall. TU meets there on Tuesday mornings @ daylight . Then there's horseshoe bend park on hwy 60 that can be waded by kids and older people . make sure you call to get the time when the dam releases water the water moves real fast and will knock you off your feet . (trust me I know ) That should cover easy access trout . There a hundred other places to trout fish that not as easy though. Bass fishing you have Blue Ridge Lake and several other lakes not far away . For the kids there's a Trout Farm close by that releases the near by streams thats easy for them and the corn fishermen . Have Fun and enjoy your new home!
