To hide from predators they will nearly always be in water ~3ft deep or deeper!!

Park at lower pool park at Buford Dam and walk downstream! Goodluck and bring your size 20 midges!

We have fished many times off of that boat as well as the Destiny! We had a killer snapper trip last summer , can’t wait to go again in August!

Lower half of the tailwater - there are many lesser known access points so don't be afraid to hit the trails and find your own quiet piece of the river!

This time of year you can fish without waders no problem! It'll be a bit chilly at first but you'll get used to it! Come out to the next Bugs And Suds at Alpharetta Outfitters, likely next Wednesday but you'll have to check their social media, and I'll be happy to answer any questions you have!

Not necessarily! Help me find some mountain folks looking for a family property!

For you, I'll put in a good word!! As long as I get to come over and eat some fruits after fishing! Hope you've been well & thanks for watching!

Thanks Jack, you're the man!!!

Thanks for watching buddy!

It’s been only several over a decade or more I’ve shared with. Unfortunately it’s getting to be a madhouse nearly the same as every other park

Thanks a ton John, I will try to mention my fly patterns more often in my videos!! I use the same handful of patterns so often I forget that it can be helpful for people to see the patterns I use. As far as locations, I’ve tried to limit my “spot burning” as far as mentioning smaller waters specifically online but am always happy to point someone in the right direction who doesn’t know where to start! One of the greatest enjoyments I’ve found in the adventure is finding the fish myself after some research or putting boots on the ground! Shoot me an email or private message if you ever have any questions ! [email protected] - thanks for watching!!

From what I've heard, no it won't be free.'

Thanks a bunch!!

I hope y'all find a great deal!!

It is not the same area! But with your jon boat you have access to some great water!

Thank you sir!!

This is a 10ft 3wt Syndicate p2 or p6 I believe. Had it about 6 years or more and it's been great despite my beating! The reel is a Guideline Haze V2 reel that is so old it's drag doesn't work anymore - definitely going to need a new reel eventually but I'll use it until I'm forced to use something else! Thanks for watching!

Welcome and thanks a ton!! The Hooch will forever be my home river after my past 10 years spent learning it with a fly rod - and a childhood spent spin fishing it, so needless to say I love it too!

Thank you very much !! Yes, this is a 10ft 3wt Syndicate p2 or p6 I believe. Had it about 6 years or more and it's been great despite my beating! The reel is a Guideline Haze V2 reel that is so old it's drag doesn't work anymore - definitely going to need a new reel eventually but I'll use it until I'm forced to use something else! The main thing will be to make sure whatever I get next will create a balanced combo.

I have an old Syndicate P2 fly rod I believe is the model , the reel is an obscure brand rarely seen over here and mostly sold in Europe which is a Guideline Haze V2 large arbor reel. I would highly recommend a 10ft 3wt, there’s a number of great brands in different price ranges but my friends enjoy using other rods of the same size like the Echo Shadow 2! I’ve even considered an 11ft 2 wt to be able to get more reach and handle lighter tippet which would be sweet for the open river! As long as you get the right length and wt you will be well on your way towards making some great drifts and getting those flies down in the water column!! Let me know if I can help with anything else or if you want advice on a certain rod you’re looking at! Tight lines and thanks for watching!!

@@madfishinskillz thank you very much for all the insight! So much for me to learn but I’m excited to start. I’m going to look into that Echo Shadow 2. There is a fly shop I like called Fish Hawk that I was thinking about visiting to look at rods and gear.

@@dallasbryan2484 you are most welcome!! The owner of the FishHawk, Gabe , is a fantastic euro nympher and taught me a great deal at a Team USA Youth fly fishing clinic right after they’d returned from winning gold in international competition. That would be a great place to check out some rods and talk to the staff, especially Gabe Wittosch! If you have an Instagram, give my account a follow as I plan to host some free euro nymphing clinics for small groups at some point in the near future and will make an announcement ! 👍

Will do! Thanks :) @@madfishinskillz

Thanks so much !!

Thanks Paul!!!

Thanks Peter!!!! 💪

Thanks so much for supporting hot off the press!! Thank you for watching!! 👍🤙

Thanks a ton for the kind words!! I finally did a leader breakdown in my newest video! Fast forward to 6:28 to get to the part where I do my leader description - and let me know if I can answer any questions after that!!! Tight lines! kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWa4mIB4payjgc0si=Ht-WE-yXouePH0ih

Thanks a ton man!!!

Easier said then done when you’re trying not to squeeze their eyeballs out!

Tailwaters! The river gets much more narrow as you get above lake Lanier towards Helen! They use the river through Helen as a “lazy river” for summer tubing for comparison. Thank you for watching!

@@madfishinskillz I thought it was…just didn’t recognize the section you were on and surprised you had it all to yourself this time of year.

@@robbieunderwood7745 It helps to hit the river on a weekday!!

You as well! Thanks 🤙

Euro nymphing Fly line: bigtflyfishing.com/products/euro-nymphing-line Sighter material: bigtflyfishing.com/products/amnesia-colored-monofilament Trout Hunter brand is the best tippet out there that we've used: bigtflyfishing.com/products/trouthunter-fluorocarbon-tippet Big T is good fella to support in GA with speedy shipping. Alpharetta Outfitters, Unicom Outfitters, and The Fish Hawk are all excellent shops in GA to support as well!

Thanks Paul!!!

Thank you very much!!! One of the biggest detriments to the wild brown trout is the fact that right after they spawn the COE usually releases full-flow to get energy for the holiday demand….but that also silts over the brown trout eggs. I’ve got a bad feeling we are in for another turbulent winter - hit the river while you can!! Thanks for watching!

Thanks a ton!!!

👍👍👍

Bingo! Beautiful area around every trout stream I’ve visited around there! Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! Definitely more incoming! Let me know if you ever come by ATL I've started to assemble my fruit forest!

The other way around! small fly off the top tag of your triple surgeon, anchor fly on the bottom!

What a great local shop for the community!!

Thank you very much!! More content coming soon!

sz 8 , custom tied by me! Brown & black & heavy!!!

Downstream actually! I'm not aware of any wadeable shoals near there!

Thanks for your support yet again!!!!

Thank you very much!! I did indeed film everyday I was in Colorado! It ended up being so much footage taking up so much storage space that I've had to get an additional hard drive in order to save all of the clips and move footage around for editing. I figured it was time to go ahead and get a new video out but I will be breaking down those clips soon in hopes of a complete video or 2!! Thanks again!

Greatly appreciated!
