Bass Fishing
Lake Eufaula in April is all about the prespawn, spawn and postspawn, and it all starts at the south end of the lake and ends way up river. Anglers can chase big spawning fish all month long and still find them in most any pattern. FLW Series angler David Lowery said it takes big bags…
This is the month bass fishermen dream about all year long. Shallow bass are feeding and fanning beds, and fishing is good. The weather is nice and comfortable most days, and it just feels good to get on the water. Lake Russell is a great lake to take advantage of the weather and the bass…
Friday the 13th wasn’t an unlucky day for Johnny Appling, of Buford. On Friday, March 13 in 2009, Johnny caught a 14-lb., 4-oz. lake-record largemouth on Lake Seed. He might attribute it more to persistence than luck, but Johnny caught the Lake Seed record while fishing a Sworming Hornet Fish Head Spin with a white…

February can be a frustrating month for anglers. A few warm days give hint of the coming spring, the bass start feeding, but then cold sets back in and knocks them back. But, if you go to Lake Jackson this month, you can find bass feeding most days by concentrating on the right places. Dammed…
Now that the smoke has settled and another deer season is in the bag, I, like many of you, turn my attention to one of my deepest passions… bass fishing. Spring is one of my favorite times of the year, and my No. 1 favorite thing to do is head to Paradise PFA in Berrien…
The north Georgia mountains are more likely to be equated with trout fishing than gigantic largemouths, but the cold, clear waters have created some California-style bass fishing on the 53-acre Unicoi Lake at Unicoi State Park, and a pair of Cleveland buddies has figured out how to catch them. On Oct. 22, Levi Garrett landed…

Partial lists for the Individual and Team Power Rankings are on these two pages, but a complete list of both lists are at <www.gon.com>. Individual Power Rankings: David Millsaps of Ranger won the 2008 Individual Power Rankings…
Dragging jigs down steep banks… dead-sticking a worm on a flat… twitching a hard jerkbait in open water… pulling a buzzbait by a dock… dropping a jigging spoon 50 feet deep below shad… punching a plastic craw through vegetation. What do these varied presentations have in common? They are all methods I have used to…
Six months after the first smallmouth bass ever documented in Lake Burton was caught, that lake record has been broken twice by some impressive bronzebacks. On July 7, 2008, David Roane, of Atlanta, was fishing at Burton with a blue-and-chrome colored Krocodile spoon. At about 11 a.m. a hefty fish hit — an unusual fish.…
