 Doll Mountain Road, Ellijay, GA 30540, United States

Ellijay has a fish with your name on it, so let Cap’n Hoek Fishing Adventures help you catch it! Your guide for the day is Captain Hunter, bringing aboard years of knowledge and experience.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Striped Bass (catch and release),
Walleye, Spotted Bass, Catfish, Crappie, Hybrid Striped Bass, Sunfish, and plenty more. During the trip, you might be spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

Your adventure begins aboard a 22’ Tidewater center console with a capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with downriggers and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Your trip with Cap’n Hoek Fishing Adventures is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

4 Hour Trip (AM) on May 16, 2025

We took an early May morning charter with Capt Hoek. He was professional, put us on fish all morning, and was kind enough to clean them for us to save us some trouble. We would highly recommend him and hope to come back to fish with him again.

6 Hour Trip on April 10, 2025

Captain Hoek did a great job balancing keeping kids entertained and getting them on big, memorable fish. My boys and I had a great time catching fish and just getting to know Hunter. Would highly recommend for any northern Georgia fishing adventures!
