Long time lurker, first time poster.
I’m a newbie river fisherman and have become addicted to kayak fishing. Lately I’ve been fishing the hooch from the Buford Dam down to Rogers Bridge. I’ve really enjoyed trout fishing in the hot summer days but my passion is bass fishing. Sometimes you have to fish for what’s biting so I’m not stubborn when it comes to catching instead of fishing.
I have to work in Cartersville this weekend and was hoping to dip the kayak in the water between some appointments. I’ve never fished the Etowah river and was hoping for some easy spots to get in and out close to where I’ll be. Any tips on what to use would help as well. I’m a simple Texas rig guy. I’ve been messing around with wacky rigs and neko rigs. I don’t necessarily fish fast unless I have to.
I’d like to thank the community for helping me adapt to kayak fishing. I read every update and continue to learn constantly. I’m already on my 3rd kayak of the year but that’s another story I might bore y’all with when we share more stories of the one that got away.
