16 Degrees, Mallards Working The Pond

It sure seemed dark, a thick blanket of fog not helping matters. With no warning, a half-dozen black forms swung out of the fog in front and banked hard left, not 30 yards off the water, and landed on down the willow-lined bank just out of shotgun range. I checked the time — five minutes…

Bartletts Ferry Nasty Weather January Bass

When it comes to winter fishing — I mean in the depth of winter with surfaces temperatures at their lowest and air temperatures so icy they numb your toes — there isn’t a much better method to attract a few fish than the vertical presentation of a jigging spoon.

Weiss Winter Crappie On The Ledges

If you’re looking for a great emerging fly, clip the bottom hackles. You can also skate it across the surface or dredge the bottom. When tying…

December 2006 Cannon’s Creel

My wife and some of her friends from college head to the mountains every fall for “girls weekend,” and Stephanie loves it. They relax. They catch up. They cook. They eat. They laugh. Simply put, they have a great time. But because we got married and went honeymooning in the middle of October, I didn’t…

Woodcock Should Fly Into Georgia Around December 10

  Twenty yards ahead of us, the little bell on Alder’s collar quit tinkling… our big male setter was on point! The privet was so thick in the river bottom, we were eight yards from the dog before we saw him… another three yards, and the bird flushed. As it cleared the privet, shotguns roared…

Tree Snaps With Hunter 45 Feet Off The Ground In Climbing Stand

On October 23, Jeff Sutton, 42, of Barnesville went hunting on a lease in Lamar County near Milan. At about 4:15 on a windy after- noon, Jeff left his truck and walked 15 minutes to a small, overgrown swampy area about 20 yards wide that was the low spot between three soybean fields. In that…
