WATCH BRASSTOWN CREEK Brasstown Creek is probably better known for its set of scenic waterfalls than trout fishing. However, it is stocked with both fingerling and adult rainbow trout. After being stocked in the spring or fall it can get a good amount of fishing pressure and I'm not sure how long those trout last before being caught and kept. |

WATCH CHATTOOGA RIVER - WILD SECTION The Chattooga River is one of the better trout streams of the southern Appalachian area. Forming the northern border of Georgia and South Carolina, it is a designated wild and scenic stream. I was fishing the area above Burrels Ford which has mostly wild brown trout. Below is hatchery supported and further below that area is delayed harvest. |

WATCH CHATTOOGA RIVER, DELAYED HARVEST This video shows the delayed harvest section of the Chattooga River along the Georgia and South Carolina borders. This runs for 2.3 miles from the Hwy 28 crossing up to Reed Creek on the Georgia side. From the Hwy 28 parking area there is an anglers trail that closely follows the river. Don't take the Foothills trail as that follows the river but does not give easy access to it. The fishing can be very good in this section due to heavy stocking and good habitat. It can also get a lot of pressure. |

WATCH EAST FORK CHATTOOGA RIVER In this video I fish South Carolina's East Fork Chattooga River the day before being hit by Hurricane Helene and then 6 months after. The stream has excellent public access via the Chattooga River trail and the East Fork trail plus a picknick area at the Hwy 107 crossing. There is some stocking near the Walhalla fish hatchery with some natural reproduction and some of the trout in the lower section are known to reach a good size. |
 |
WATCH CHAUGA RIVER The Chauga River in South Carolina offers 10 miles of trout fishing thru mostly public land with several access points. The trout fishing extends down to its confluence with Cedar Creek, which is another good trout stream. The stream is stocked with adult brook, brown and rainbow trout. Fingerling brown trout are also stocked, some of which grow to a large size. The trout fishing section resides within the Chauga River Scenic Area, a designation I find easy to understand. |

WATCH KINGS CREEK Kings Creek is a tributary of the Chattooga River in northeast South Carolina. While it is a trout stream it is best known for the 75 foot Kings Creek Falls which you see here. The easiest way to get there is to park at the Burrells Ford CG parking lot and hike about a mile to the stream. The stream is stocked with fingerling brown and rainbow trout. Wild brook trout exist above the waterfall. The trail ends at the waterfall. While the trail is always close to the stream it is a steep, difficult and brushy decent from the trail down to the stream. |
