Our destination is the Soque River in northern Georgia with Stephen Tomasovich, better known as Big T, owner of Soque River Outfitters, Clarkesville GA.   Just an hour or two north of Atlanta, the Soque is loaded with big Rainbows, is easy to wade, and offers excellent year-round angling.   

A competition angler, Big T shares how to size up a stream, make the right adjustments, the tricks big trout play, top confidence flies, and an overview of the top streams and tailwaters in the area including one you’ve probably never heard of.  Stick around to the end for a great story of wily old 28” brown trout he had hooked 6 times.  

With host, Steve Haigh
