Water Recreation of All Kinds

Bass, walleye, and bluegill are the most sought after sport fish in the lake. Water that exits the dam becomes the Toccoa River, a hotspot for trout fishing in the area.
A few miles downstream in Tennessee, the Toccoa becomes the Ocoee, home to world-class kayaking and whitewater rafting, perfect for those looking for adventure!
