If you're on the hunt for huge trophy trout, North Georgia streams such as Duke's Creek, Chestetee River, Chattahooche ("the Hooch") River and The Soque are the places to be. I actually experienced a two day trip a couple of years ago when the smallest trout I caught (of twenty-five) was over four pounds. The largest was a hen rainbow that was 31 1/2" long and weighed 15 pounds 3 ounces. For one shining day she was the state record rainbow. One day later, an 18 pounder was landed. I have a graphite mount of her in my office.
