Yep, the Hooch Delayed Harvest section baby! From just up river from I-285 all the way down to US-41 is chocked full of trout. DH rules apply (catch and release mandatory, single hook, no live bait) from Nov 1 until May 15th, so make sure you are in compliance with the special regs until DH season ends.

Alternatively you could travel further upstream, use a rod size folks say is too big, cast flies folks say are too large, and take pictures showing a smile that folks say is too big.
