🌊 New Corps Operations Improve Chattahoochee River Water Quality 🐟

We have approved a new operating procedure at Buford Dam to improve dissolved oxygen levels in the Chattahoochee River downstream of Lake Sidney Lanier.

By combining turbine releases with aerated flows through the sluice gates, the operation improves water quality in the upper tailwater, providing healthier conditions for trout and the aquatic ecosystem along the 35-mile reach between Buford Dam and Morgan Falls Dam. 🐠🌿

The change does not alter lake levels or the total amount of water released it simply changes how the minimum flow is delivered.

The effort is part of Sustainable Rivers Program, which uses science-based changes to dam operations to support healthier river ecosystems while maintaining authorized project purposes.

The new procedure will also support the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area and the Georgia DNR Buford Trout Hatchery, helping maintain water conditions important for recreation, fishing and trout production. river while supporting the continued operation of Buford Dam.

We normally cannot take three grown men in our drift boats but occasionally we make the exception. These boys have fished Alaska and many other distant waters together so we made it happen again on the Chattahoochee keeping with their Family tradition of three generations together enjoying the outdoors! šŸ™Œā¤ļøšŸ˜Š 🧈

From nervous first trips to 30 years of guiding experience. šŸŽ£

Back then, getting a client their fishing photos meant keeping stamped envelopes in a Tupperware box, developing the film at Eckerd Drugs, and mailing the pictures out at the end of the month.

Today? We’re AirDropping photos and videos before the boat even hits the ramp.

A lot has changed over the years, but the goal hasn’t: put our clients on fish, create a great experience, and make sure they leave with memories to take home.

For Jonah, guiding has always been about giving back. šŸŽ£

Fly fishing has given him a lot over the years—the experiences, the people, the places, and a connection to the water that’s hard to put into words.

Becoming a guide was his way of sharing that with others.

Whether it’s someone picking up a fly rod for the very first time or an experienced angler looking for their next great day on the water, Jonah wants to introduce as many people as possible to the sport that’s given him so much.

That’s what guiding is all about. Passing it on, one cast at a time.

Come experience it for yourself with River Through Atlanta. šŸ¤™

The monsters are out there. šŸŽ£šŸ‘€

We’re always hunting them—and every now and then, everything comes together and a true giant finds its way into the net.

But you can’t catch ’em from the couch. The only way to get on these fish is to get out there, put in the time, and keep fishing.

Come chase the next monster with River Through Atlanta.

Stop putting off the day on the water. The trout are here, the river is calling, and there’s always another giant waiting for you.

Book your next trip with River Through Atlanta and come see what’s swimming through Atlanta. šŸ”„šŸŸ
