Hunting
With the dog days of summer coming to a close, deer hunters are anxiously waiting for the crisp autumn air to set in. Year after year, we spend countless hours pouring sweat, all in hopes that it pays off once the season comes around. With a cell cam and corn out, the stage was set…
As deer season rolls around, the woods become filled with hunters ready to bag the big one for the wall or to fill the freezer. For all the enthusiasm you’ll find on social media, there’s also a growing sense that you need the latest and greatest equipment and gear to succeed in the field—a sentiment…
You know he’s out there, roaming around somewhere on the place. Ground sign here, trail-cam photo there, antlers everywhere… what’s it going to take for the two of you to meet up? He’s getting instinctively restless, is the buck, possibly not even realizing where these urges are coming from, but he is feeling the need…
Rain and swirling winds followed by scorching summer-like temperatures couldn’t dampen opening week of Georgia’s archery season. Hunters are flooding GON with pictures and stories of big bucks—and the season is only getting started. We have a super group of Hunt Advisors across the state who file reports from their deer woods. Here are their…
The first hint of cooler weather has tickled south Georgia, and the trees are slowly starting to show signs of trading in their green shady canopies for future burn-pile fuel in hints of orange, red and yellow. The corn has been picked and the fields have hosted early season dove shoots with the popping of…

GON has kept the Georgia’s Biggest Bass Of All-Time list for decades, and we sure like it when a 13-lb. or heavier bass from the past shows up that we can add. The kicker is these older bass would have had to been weighed on certified scales. Well, we got one! A 13-lb. bass was…
For the second time in a week, the Alapaha River redbreast record has been broken. On Aug. 31, Craig James, along with his son Colt, were fishing the river when they managed to connect with a big panfish that was able to edge out the newly set record. “I had never fished the river before,…
Suwannee bass are unique. With ranges in only two river systems in south Georgia, they have one of the smallest distributions of all of the black basses. They look sort of like a football with hints of smallmouth and shoal bass. They are their own species, but they do not get very big. Our Georgia…
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Bassmaster Elite Series and the Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Classic presented by Jockey Outdoors are the pinnacles of competitive bass fishing. B.A.S.S. has created unwavering standards of excellence and expectations for the anglers who fish under these banners. This week the organization announces the creation of equipment standards related to new…
From where I live in southwest Georgia, it’s close enough to the Gulf of Mexico to occasionally catch a whiff of salt in the air. The Gulf is where my friends and I bottomed fished for grouper and snapper, and it’s where chased redfish and trout on the flats. It’s our playground and sanctuary. In…

The impacts of Hurricane Helene and its destructive path though Georgia remain profound. Teams from all aspects of DNR are currently in the field right now helping with relief efforts, including assisting counties and power companies with clearing roads.

“That deer’s going to be lucky to make it to 5.” That was a neighbor’s comment about the 5 1/2-year-old, 16-point buck killed on Friday, Sept. 27 by Matthew Hvizdzak. The buck came to the attention of Matthew and neighbors when it was 2 1/2 years old and already had an impressive rack as a…
