Lambster's River Reports
Our guides and friends spend a lot of time on these waters!
​
Our cold waters are the Tailwaters of the Toccoa River and the Upper Mountain streams of North Georgia... so we offer Drift boat trips on the Toccoa River as well as wading trips!
​
​
Nov.3, 2024 The Toccoa is fishing well, #18 #20 Midges in the early morning Hrs. will catch you many fish! As the day heats up be watching for Hatches of Caddis and scattered May flies! Even double rigs of #20 Zebra midges work well in the medium fast water! The DH will be starting up soon!
​
​
Using a Hopper dropper set up with some #18 #20 caddis Larva or BH head Pheasant tail nymphs should get you some hook ups!
​
If your targeting big Trout try a mix batch of streamer patterns!
BH #6 or #8 Olive or black....! Remember that once a Trout gets 14 or 20 inches they become meat eaters!
​
Fish the deep tail outs and Medium slow water for Browns... the Toccoa Tailwaters has some pretty good sized Browns in its Basin!
​
Rainbows tend to like the faster water but you can still catch them in the medium riffle water! Double nymph rigs such as a #18 prince nymph and a #20 BH black or red zebra midge will work great!​
​
Hopper dropper systems are working Great! Foam hoppers seem to work the best! BH #18 pheasant tail, BH #20 caddis Larva, #18 Prince nymphs ..... DH is coming up for all those who like to winter fish! Water is down up river, so wading isn't as tough!​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
Trophy Trout are sometimes tough...! High water is sometimes the best time to catch those bigger trout! We've caught several monsters as the water starts going down! This large Brown was caught in a slow deep pool! Stay focused on the edges of the river banks.....! Changing speed bringing in your streamers will pay off!
Big Browns are smart fish! We do nothing but Catch & Release!

We also guide on the Etowah River in which is a Tailwaters but a warm water fishery! Spotted Bass are a the dominant species in the river basin! What is pretty cool about this river, is it has 20 types of fish in it! Hybrid Bass come in the spring then the Stripers come up in May but not to over look LG Mouth Bass, Red eye Bass and Trophy Gar which are so much fun to catch!
​
​
​
We fly fish with 7wt. and 9wt Rods on the Etowah! We also offer use of spin rods.... We use many types of streamers to catch these Bass but also many types of Crankbaits and swim baits are used! Lunches are provided on all Drift boat trips and cold drinks during our trips!
