Fishing on the Chattahoochee

If you take exit 7a on the GA-400 and then circle back towards the river down Old Alabama you will find parking under the GA-400. If you wade up river a bit you will find some great rapids for fly fishing. Just remember to get your fishing license. The Chattahoochee has cleaned up, but I would still highly encourage a catch and release strategy. The flowing water creates a cool breeze, which can be nice on a hot Atlanta day. Kayaking is also a great pass time on the river and there are multiple places to rent a kayak.
