Learn when, where, and how to catch the best trout in the northern part of Georgia.
This comprehensive guide, now in its fourth edition, provides extensive yet easy-to-read information not only about how to catch trout, but also about fishing locations in Georgia and how to get to them. The book now includes photographs and has been completely updated, to include five new streams and revised information on 73 other creeks, rivers, and ponds. Addressing all three fishing methods—bait, spinner and fly—the guide also describes the history and variety of trout.
Jacobs offers plenty of tips about equipment, tackle and techniques for the best results. The book includes detailed maps and directions as well as the special regulations governing each stream. Whether a novice or a seasoned pro, any trout fisherman hoping to land this delicate and elusive quarry will find Trout Fishing in North Georgia a valuable resource.

From the Back Cover

Andrews introduces us to two very powerful African-American women, survivng and thriving in the male-dominated world of the rural South. Thoroughly different and equally dedicated to getting their way, Jessie and Claire are entertaining and amazing--not to mention dangerous.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best info out there on Georgia trout streams
Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2015

Best info out there on Georgia trout streams. Our streams are not in Montana and Georgia streams are notoriously hard to access with all the public lands that block us trout fishermen, but Jimmy helps clear a path to make the pursuit worthwhile. Loaded with access point info, stream info, and tons of information on many of the lesser known streams in North Georgia, you're money will be well spent purchasing this guide. With just one trip to one of his favorite streams, you'll recoup your investment in this guide.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great info but somewhat inconsistent

It's a really good book and had a ton of good info. I was disappointed that there was no consistency with what specific baits to use for every river. He covered this on a few of the rivers but left some out.

Excellent book and thankful. I've only been into the fly fishing for about a year and have found it difficult to get into the sport. But with a lot of research and a good friend's help; this book has streamlined the process and is taking me to unfished areas I can really. A must purchase and a must read for the best N. GA fly spots!

I have used this book for many years as a guide to new trout fishing spots. I have loaned it out many times and others were pleased to use it. One, however, liked so much they kept it. This purchase was a replacement. The book has some years on it, but still covers some long forgotten areas. I would highly recomend this book.

I'm from the south and had never trout fished. Went to Helen, GA for a week in April, 2010. Read lots of info on the internet, but I wanted a good source of info at my fingertips. This book really gave me some helpful information and was an enjoyable read. I caught ten trout on my trip and thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks!

An excellent guide. Jacobs is clear, informative, mostly accurate for so broad coverage. He is especially good on access directions. I have used this book for years and bought this one for a fishing friend.
