Ken Louko introduced himself to fly fishing for Brown trout on his parent's farm in Upstate New York. As a kid, he progressed from bait casting, to spin fishing, and then on to a fly rod teaching himself how to cast using a streamer. In 1985, as a new resident of Atlanta, Ken decided to put all of his spin fishing equipment in the attic and dedicate himself 100% to fishing with a fly rod.
An ardent conservationist, he supports catch & release fly fishing and is a Life Time Member of Trout Unlimited, a founding member of the Trout Unlimited Stewardship Council in Georgia, supports the Upper Chattahoochee Riverkeeper, and is actively involved with the Federation of Fly Fishers through his board member role in the Atlanta Fly Fishing Club. Ken is a member of the Upper Chattahoochee Chapter of TU and a past Vice Chairman of the Georgia Council of Trout Unlimited. In addition, Ken is a founding and charter member of The Atlanta Fly Casting Club.
In 1996, he founded Spring Creek Anglers to help teach others about the sport of fly fishing whether a total beginner, intermediate fly angler, or an experienced spin/bait caster wishing to learn to fish with a fly rod.
In 2003, Ken developed a private water trophy trout fly fishing venue called Noontootla Creek Farms located in Blue Ridge, GA. He also ran the fly fishing venue for one and a half years on behalf of the landowners up until they began work on the NCF Sporting Clays operation.
In early 2005, he co-founded and opened High Meadows Club in Ellijay, GA, initially with two and one-half miles of private trout water. High Meadows Club is now closed and is no longer taking reservations.
(Note to Self: Be careful of dishonest business partners that lie, cheat and steal from you.)
Spring Creek Anglers continues to teach others about the sport of fly fishing as it has for many years. However, additional guiding services on North Georgia private trophy trout waters has been added as well as hosting destination fly fishing trips like the annual Fall Steelhead trip to Upstate NY.
The Steelhead Trip is a GREAT trip for anyone that would like to try their hand at chasing big, wild, sometimes "out-of-control", chromers fresh from the Great Lakes where they have bulked up on shiners for the majority of the year. Double digit days are not un-common. No one in North Georgia that hosts trips knows more about where to find these fish -- and BIG fish -- than Ken. The Lake Erie trib's are our primary destination. This trip takes place in mid-November. Contact us early as space is somewhat limited due to the number of returning anglers each year.
Great Food! Great group of "Steelheaders"! Fish for the Big Boys!
