Etowah River Guide & Tip (Euharlee Rd. to Harden Bridge)

In this video I (ThatGuyWiththeFish) aka the "Most Awesome Ginger In The World " and some friends paddle/fish the Etowah River (Cartersville, Ga), between Euharlee Rd and Harden Bridge. It's a beautiful stretch of river with plenty to see and explore. It's just right for beginners and the experienced who are looking for a short run.

I've been on that river twice. There are tons of rocks/boulders underneath. We did 30 + miles i think we dropped of in rome and camped in between on an island. Awesome time. Going back end of April

Im assuming you put in at Neal's Landing and took out at Grizzard Park. That's a 16 mile float. I have yet been able to do it. Looking forward to making the run this spring or summer.

I bet they were glad that you had your blue bag with you!

My target species is catfish. I have yet to catch one. Kind of hard to fit in fishing in between work and helping out wife with 2 toddlers and a baby. Last time i was out on the etowah, i lost some tackle underwater. I got a few hooks caught and stuck underwater. Hopefully i have better luck

[@ThatGuyWithTheFish1460]

I feel you about finding time to fish. Fortunately my 2 children are in there late teens and are to cool to hang with dad, 😆. I don't target cats but, those I know that do target the deep wholes towards the middle of the river. Bait, chicken livers or shad heads. Like I said, I don't target them but have caught several. So they're in there and fight like hell. Goodluck fishing and being a parent.

@@ThatGuyWithTheFish1460 i have used raw bacon soaked in garlic powder and fish attractant oils bought at academy sports. That and nightcrawlers and cut bluegill.

I see you picked the middle route through that one rapid at the beginning. Unfortunately, I've only chosen the right, then the left. Not recommended lol

[@ThatGuyWithTheFish1460]

😆 I've done the same thing. On previous trips, I learned the hard way, too.

Any recommendations on drop off and pick up locations? Looking to do a 3 day trip

[@ThatGuyWithTheFish1460]

It is possible and it would be a blast to pull off a 3 day trip. However keep in mind that all properties on the lower Etowah is private. Even the island you camped on.
