About Walter F. George Lake

In Between Two States & Two Times the Fun

The 45,000-acre Walter F. George Reservoir, popularly known as Lake Eufaula, was created on the Chattahoochee River. The United States Army Corps of Engineers is in charge of this body of water that is on the boundary between Alabama and Georgia (USACE).

On the Water

45,000 acres and 640 miles of shoreline make up Walter F. George Lake. This provides lots of space for activities like swimming, boating, fishing, and canoeing or kayaking. On this lake, fishing is quite popular, and if you're lucky, you may catch largemouth bass, bream, crappie, striped bass, hybrid bass, catfish, and more! Since trophy fishing is so well-liked there, some people refer to Walter F. George as the bass capital of the world.
