Rainy Day Hog Dog

This big nasty boar was taken one night in some steady rain in Rayle, GA. Ryne and I struck out with about an hour and a half window between rain waves, and I’m glad we did. We ran up on this pig about 5 minutes out of the box. At first I thought he was…

13-3 Lake Seminole Alligator

By Mike Harp Just wanted to sit down and tell my story of the last four years of gator hunting leading up to my 2020 13-3 beast. It all started with my first tag in 2013. I thought it was going to be easy to just go out and get one. Well one weekend later,…

Answer To Crime Surge Certainly Not More Gun Laws

I sat down this morning to write about the pride I feel about this issue of GON. Duncan Dobie’s story about Papa Bland… another gem by a fantastic storyteller who continues to produce an everlasting chronicle of Georgia’s outdoors. There’s Ronnie Garrison, cranking out another Map-of-the-Month article, pure gold, not just because of the info but…

GON’s Trophy Room – July 2021

Life Lessons From A Legend

Last year, I had the opportunity to spend a couple of days at Clarks Hill Lake with bass fishing legend Hank Parker. As a child I spent many Saturday mornings glued to the television set watching Hank share fishing tips, many of which I still use to this day. Making the three hour or so…

Missing My Brother Rat

I went to a funeral service yesterday. Jesus wept, so it’s OK to be sad. However, my hour with those sweet people really was a celebration of a life. My friend’s name was Raymond Gibbs, although those who knew him just called him Rat. I’m pretty sure it was September 2014 when if I first…

Georgia Hog Doggin’

This time we were collecting video down in Shady Dale, GA with our good buddies Brian John and Wes Wilson. We were able to get on a few solid pigs that day and everybody had a good time. Leah John, Brian’s daughter, proved herself to be the hand of the day after tying a couple…

We Miss You, Michael

I’ve wanted to write this one for a long time, but finding the words is just flat hard. I’ll just come out and say it. Man, I miss Michael. It’s funny to say that now. As I’m typing these words I can remember a time when we didn’t care for each other in the slightest,…

Gauging Success

I’ve fished the Satilla River for more than three decades. I have to say the past couple of years I’ve had more success than ever before, and it’s not because I’m getting any better at fishing, I promise you that. Nor have I discovered a new top-secret lure or technique guaranteed to make them bite…
