Seasonal Stocked Trout Pond
Catch and keep up to 10 trout per trout package purchased. Stocked periodically during fishing season, trout package costs fluctuate based on cost of fish at the time of booking your package. The best bait to use is live worms or artificial trout bait. Fish range in size from 10"-14" fish, it's a great time for families and children. Not recommended for serious anglers. The Blue Creek is right next to the pond and links to the Chattahoochee about 1 mile down from the pond. Enjoy the gardens, Gazebo, and picnic area at Blue Creek. Private for only Blue Creek Cabins Guests.
