Fishing Reports
Wow, what a difference a week makes! We’ve gone from the upper rivers clearing up and dropping lower than you can get motorboats around in to rising fast again. The bigger rivers will take a little longer for that to happen, but the last couple of days of rain will probably push all our rivers…
It seems almost inevitable that at some point Georgia’s deer herd will be affected by Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD). After cases in Alabama, Tennessee and North Carolina, Georgia has thus far dodged the CWD bullet, although the bullet seems to be hitting closer. A Georgia case hasn’t shown up yet, but a CWD positive…
Little more than a month after Seth Shoults, of Cartersville, set two Etowah River catfish records in one night, he guided his nephew into the Lake Allatoona waterbody record books. On the evening of April 21, Seth established the new blue catfish and channel catfish waterbody records on the Etowah River. He caught a 7-lb.…
Robert DeHaas, lure-maker with Red Rooster Custom Baits and an OG from “Team Geezer,” reports, “The crappie are on their summer pattern, suspended in or around structure in 10 to 20 feet of water. The early and evening bites are your best bet. The water temp mid-lake was 78 degrees and clear and the water…
I rarely set out on a camping trip between Easter and Labor Day. I am a tent camper and frankly, it’s too darn hot for my liking in the summer. However, I made an exception last week after reading about the Red River Gorge area of Kentucky. I poked around on the internet and Koomer…
Not as many people reported this week as compared to the holiday weekend, but there were still a lot of folks fishing. The rivers are getting back in decent shape again, and I expect to get some excellent reports this week. Alapaha River: Take note that the Highway 129 bridge boat ramp (near Lakeland) closed…
Year-long negotiations between DNR and landowners have come to an end, and barring a miracle, the 14,000-acre Pine Log WMA in Bartow County will be no more. DNR has removed its equipment from the property, transferred its personnel to other WMAs, and the gates have been locked blocking public access. DNR has leased the property…
Recent reports of a nearly 1,200-lb. great white shark being tracked via satellite off the coast of Georgia have created a buzz. For many Georgia citizens, the report may have come as a surprise since the Georgia coast is not where the public would typically picture this type of shark. However, a Georgia Coastal Resources…
Many things in life are complicated, but putting in food plots on hunting land doesn’t have to be complex. Hunters can make it easy by preparing and planting food plots with the Firminator. The Firminator is a high-quality, American-made implement that discs plots, plants the seed at the rate wanted, and culti-packs the soil afterward.…
The chance to hunt a new tract of land with great odds to take home some venison and possibly even a quality buck, or maybe get back on a dove field for the first time in a few years, or even a waterfowl hunt where mallards are a real possibility… these experiences are available to…
