- **Event Name**: Etowah River Camp n Paddle 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 13 Jun, 2026 at 08:30 am (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Etowah River Camp n Paddle – 2026

Join a day of moving‑water adventure on North Georgia’s Etowah River, a scenic shoal‑studded stream known for fun current and excellent warm‑water fishing. This Camp n Paddle is a non‑competitive, education‑focused weekend designed to help kayak anglers get comfortable reading current, running mild shoals, and targeting river bass and other species from their kayaks.

The Etowah combines long pools, gentle bends, and Class I shoals, creating a great learning environment for paddlers who are ready to move beyond flatwater but aren’t looking for whitewater. Along many popular stretches, you’ll float past rocky bluffs, wooded banks, islands, and historic Native American fish weirs while casting to current seams, eddies, laydowns, and shoal edges. Common targets include Alabama (spotted) bass and other warm‑water species that stack up around structure and breaks in the flow, rewarding precise casts and good boat positioning.

Throughout the day, event leaders focus on river‑reading skills—how to spot safe lines through shoals, use eddies and current to your advantage, and set up controlled drifts to present lures naturally. Safety remains central to the experience: life jackets are required at all times on the water, and participants review moving‑water basics such as scouting obstacles, avoiding strainers, and managing group spacing in current. There is also dedicated time to talk gear, from choosing river‑friendly rod setups and tackle to outfitting kayaks with anchors or drag chains appropriate for flowing water.
