Fly Fishing in North Georgia

There are over 325 streams in the North Georgia Mountains representing 5500 miles of waters designated as Georgia trout streams. That’s a lot of fish waiting to be caught! Whether your preference is wide open rivers or small hidden creeks, there is no lack of “fishing holes”. No matter where you are in the mountains a trout stream is usually nearby.
If you have never fly fished for trout on a stream before, you may want to consider investing in a casting lesson and a fishing guide. The essence of the sport is all about outwitting the fish. You will be amazed at how ingenious their tiny brains really are so a guide is highly recommended to save frustration out on the stream and great investments in gear until you know exactly what you want. Once you throw the first cast, you are hooked.
At Escape to Blue Ridge, some of our guests recently went on a trip with Kent Klewein and had a spectacular time. For details on how to reach Captain Kent, please contact him at 770-330-7583 or visit his website at

Bears or Birds?

This birdfeeder is not only squirrel proof but also bear proof. Our neighbors caught this one morning when they were reading the paper and having their morning cup of "go juice".

We have had several sightings. They run away as soon as they hear us though. I am having the metal bear bin trash cans made for a few cabins due to the bears wanting to demolish the wooden trash bins. No worries, chances of you seeing one are extremely limited. They seem to only come out when all is quiet and there are no sign of people or dogs.

Blue Ridge Georgia’s Latest Treasures

Check out the latest in kids activities in Blue Ridge Georgia.
Huck’s General store has now opened an indoor gem mining and putt putt course located in the mines of main street. Our kids loved it and have been back twice now (with their own money of course). For $25, you can have a bucket of dirt with true hidden treasures and a round of putt putt that will keep these kids entertained for quite a while. If you want to make it last longer, buy them each a bucket so they aren’t racing to pan the next scoop. Less expensive options are available too but trust me when I say, you might as well buy the big bucket. A quick entertaining lesson on geology was given by Brett and Jeff, the owners, and the kids were off looking for the biggest piece of emeralds, tigers eye and amethyst that I have ever seen. Our home rock tumbler is going to be very active.


For more information check out http://www.hucksgeneralstore.com/ at 500 E Main Street.
