It’s all subjective, I guess, but it does feel like there’s more to talk about for this year’s Ag-Pro Outdoor Blast than there ever has been since me and the others from GON created this show in 2007 for a place to have our Shoot-Out.

Over the years, I’ve been blessed to work on what now totals to be hundreds of news stories, fishing reports, feature articles, and the like for GON. Sharing the outdoors with others has always been my passion, and I try my best to bring that energy to life through the words that I type. That’s…

They ranged in age from eight to 18. There were about half as many dads and church men hanging around doing various…

T.C. Morey, a 13-year-old from Leesburg, had a day on Lake Worth! T.C. caught a largemouth bass that was certified at 8.95 pounds (8-lbs., 15.2-ozs.) on DNR scales at the Albany Fisheries office to set a new Lake Worth record. That fish was T.C.’s best bass to date, but during that same trip, he also…
Level: 4.58 feet and rising at this Alapaha River gauge. Water Clarity: Stained. The Alapaha River has been on fire the past few days, and I’ve had numerous reports come in from anglers up and down the river. Josh Forsythe, of Homerville, made several trips this week, and the bite seemed to get better each…
A Glennville man has officially tied the Georgia state saltwater record for dolphin (Coryphaena hippurus), also known as mahi mahi, after landing a massive 68-lb., 9.28-oz. fish off the Georgia coast earlier this month. Cade Quick reeled in the record-tying dolphin on May 5 while fishing near the South Ledge aboard a private boat. His catch officially…
