Elk Country Outfitters is located in Atlanta and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Capt. Kelly will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 8-hour trips, mainly fishing for Brook Trout and Brown Trout, depending on the season and conditions on the day. Apart from Trout, the captain also offers year-round trips for panfish. In the winter, he rents shanties for Pike spearing and provides all the equipment.

On your trip, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, fly fishing, drift fishing, ice fishing, spearfishing, and spinning.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 13’ Stealthcraft boat that can safely take up to 2 anglers. This boat comes with an ice-box and a fighting chair.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Please make sure to buy a valid fishing license ahead of time. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip.
