Fishing the Old South

Jun 1, 2009

Deep in the southern Appalachian Mountains, through misty green valleys, within the unsurpassed beauty of the Chattahoochee National Forest, the Russell-Brasstown National Scenic Byway winds its way to some of northern Georgia’s greatest fishing spots. Cast a fly in a secluded mountain stream, or take advantage of trout fisheries found only in the northeast region of the state.

Cool in the summer, mild in the winter, this byway beckons you to lose yourself in its luscious timberland. Linger atop Brasstown Bald (Georgia's tallest mountain) to absorb all 360-degrees of rolling highlands. Escape the crowds and retire to the cooling mists of the byway's numerous waterfalls. Got a hanker for a hike, but the Appalachian Trail isn't what you had in mind? Sparkling waterfalls and secluded valley views are just a short stroll from the main road.
