New fishing regs are out and it looks like all Georgia trout streams are now year round. There are still special regulations about bait and catch-and-release but it looks like there is no longer a restricted trout “season.” Besides the close-by trout fishing on the Hooch, think about the streams near Clayton. There are isolated streams up in Warwoman WMA and an easy access section of Warwoman Creek at Earl’s Ford Rd. that runs down to the Chatooga. Regularly stocked with rainbows for put and take but I have caught a brookie or two on rooster-tails. I’ll try to hit the area after Easter and do a little ruffed grouse scouting at the same time.
