Fishing
Here we were, finally, with a boat in the water and geared for bass, making our first casts into the unknown waters of Lucas Lake. The anticipation we felt was similar to when Black Shoals Reservoir first opened to fishing — both were trolling-motor-only reservoirs that opened to public fishing after years of delays. No,…
Randy Dover is in a different boat almost every time you pass him on Lake Lanier. Due to his local reputation for knowing the best docks for crappie, you might think his constant selling and buying of boats is his way of throwing other crappie anglers off his trail. Take one look at Randy and…

If you like beautiful scenery, easy wading, and abundant trout, then you would be wise to load up the truck and head to Wildcat Creek just north of Helen in northeastern…
They say the best laid plans of mice and men (and bass fishermen) often go astray. Such was the case when Frank Cobb and I decided to get an early taste of Lake Weiss’s famous springtime weedbed bassin’. In the only stroke of good fortune we encountered, after an initial batten’ down the hatches forecast…
