Etowah Valley Anglers

A small two-person outfit working out of Piney Woods, Taylorsville, Georgia. Chad Bryson is the lead guide with more than three decades of experience, including seasons in the Florida Keys, the Rocky Mountains, Alaska and Patagonia. Chrystal Campbell handles logistics, takes the oars occasionally, and brings outfitting and backcountry experience from Montana. The company’s positioning is deliberately narrow: it markets itself around a single northwest Georgia river rather than a portfolio of reservoirs, and it caps parties at two so the day stays personal. It runs no retail store, no lodging and no casting school, and guided days are the sole product. The website was actively accepting spring reservations when read.
