A buddy killed a nice buck last season and would have won a $1,200 Browning deer rifle and a chance to shoot for a new truck. One problem, he didn’t have a GON membership. Why’d he drop his subscription? “Too many fishing articles when it wasn’t hunting season…” I just shook my head and reminded…
Bartletts Ferry: Level: 1.1 feet below full pool. Temp: Upper 80s. Clarity: Clear. Bass: Tournament director and competitor Dennis Hudson reports, “Bass fishing is still tough. The topwater action is hit or miss, but it’s about the best bite going right now. Hollow-body frogs fished deep into cover and Horny Toads around grass are getting…
Allatoona: Level: 2.1 feet low. Temp: 88 degrees. Clarity: Clear, about 7 feet. Bass: Tournament angler Matt Driver reports, “Fishing is good in the month of September and only gets better as the weather cools. The bite is steady, and a variety of baits are working.

One day there is a good frog bite in the grass above Crooked Creek. The next day you can’t find the fish there,…
Seminole: Level: 0.5 feet below full. Temp: Upper 80s to low 90s. Clarity: Clear. Bass: Guide Paul Tyre reports, “The bass fishing on Lake Seminole has been good this August. We have had some exceptional days fishing topwater lures like frogs, buzzbaits and walking baits, even with the hot water temperatures averaging around 90 degrees. As…
Saltwater: Inshore: Capt. David Newlin reports, “September is always my favorite month of the year to fish in coastal Georgia. The weather is usually nice, and the fishing is hot. The last few days has seen some really good fish catches. Redfish, trout, black drum, flounder, croaker and whiting have been biting. The redfish numbers are as good…
