Moving into the month of December the top water bite declines and the bottom is where you need to have your nymph.

As I write this article in early December, old man winter has been playing peek-a-boo with us lately. Just a short while back, we had temperatures in the teens.

The beauty of Fall has now left us as well as the crowds on the streams. Old man winter is perhaps right around the corner. This should change your approach to trout fishing as they will no longer be feeding on the surface.

"Wow. What an awesome trip! I booked this trip as a Christmas present to myself and couldn't be happier. James was an excellent and patient guide. He made my experience as a first timer very fun and relaxing. I came away with a wealth of knowledge and can't wait to book another trip with these guys!"

"Great guys, big fish!
Great Service! The guides give great tips for beginners and experienced fishermen alike and of course, expect fish in the net! Give them a call, and prepare for an epic day on the water. Surely was for me!"

“James was right there to help me get the fish out of the net for photos and was also taking plenty of pics for us along the way - which he promptly emailed to us right after so that we'd have them. My boyfriend caught the largest trout he's ever caught here in GA. He was so happy at the end of our trip and has been talking non-stop about it ever since. A+++++++++ all the way around!!"

"My husband and our two teenage daughters booked a fly fishing trip with Reel’em In guide service during our summer vacation. We met the guides, James and Carter, who were just amazing. They demonstrated patience, expertise, and professionalism. I would definitely recommend booking a trip with them. We’re looking forward to doing this again with James an Carter as our guides."

"Went on a fishing trip guided by Dave Hulsey. It could not have been a better trip. It was my son’s first day on a fly rod. David had him catching fish in an hour. David was knowledgeable, patient and quick. I have used other guides in the area. David was head and shoulders above the rest."
