Hi, we have recently relocated to Coweta county from CT. My husband loves to fish and we are looking for any info on areas to fish within about an hours drive. We live in Sharpsburg, GA. He mostly likes to fish for Trout and Bass.
Thanks !

Does he fly fish or spin fish? Flat water or stream? If you want trout streams, the farther north you go the better. Trout Fishing in Georgia | Georgia DNR - Wildlife Resources Division here's a link with more info. You can bass fish in lakes and ponds all over. The DNR keeps a list of public access lakes by county and Georgia Outdoors website has info as well.

I think most of the good fishing is in North Georgia, but you can try West Point which is SW off 85.

Default Nash Farm Lake to temporarily close for fish stocking and growth

Quote:
HAMPTON — The lake at Nash Farm Park will close to the public until January to allow new fish populations to mature. Fishing, boating and photography will be restricted to prevent interference with the ecosystem changes the lake will undergo after stocking.

Once the fish populations have matured, Henry County Parks and Recreation and The Bridge Solution will host several community fishing events to encourage the use of the lake. Parks and Recreation announced a calendar of events that includes classes, tournaments and family gatherings.

District II Commissioner Dee Clemmons introduced The Bridge Solution and paved the way for the partnership that makes the fishing program possible.

Check out some of these spots on Yelp. I don't know where you moved from but I used to live in Savannah, Ga. One thing that I found odd here in Atlanta is how a lot of the lakes are fenced off and have "no fishing" signs. If you go fishing on public land you need to have a fishing license. Down in Savannah, it's very easy to get out and go fishing. You just find the ocean, intercoastal waterway, river, sound, or lake and drop a line in. One of the few things I miss about Savannah.
