Fishing
Saltwater: Inshore: Capt. David Newlin reports, “October fishing has been absolutely terrific. Redfish, trout and the black drum bites have been as good as it gets. This warm weather has turned the bite on. Redfish have been as good as I have ever seen it. Yesterday, I had my 15-fish limit in about 30 minutes. The…
I didn’t get many reports from freshwater, but the saltwater reports were fantastic this week. The Okefenokee, St Marys River, ponds, and saltwater are the places to fish right now. Satilla River: I fished the extreme lower Satilla on Sunday evening for striped bass. I got a nice one to eat a 3-inch chartreuse pearl…
I’m sure I’m not alone in the sentiment that I sure hope the storms are done for this year! Our area was spared through Milton, but keep the folks in central Florida in your prayers as they dig out and try to figure out normal again. Most river systems in southeast Georgia are too high…
Saltwater: Inshore: Capt. Judy Helmey reports, “I consider the month of October as being one of the best fishing months for both fish and fishermen. The reason being is all fish, both inshore and offshore, are in full migration mode. With water temperatures on the fall, the redfish, spotted seatrout and flounder bites gets more predictable.…
These cooler temperatures have been great for anglers, and most of the bites have fired off, as well. The Altamaha system bass bite has remained great. Saltwater has been consistent, as well. Altamaha/Ocmulgee River: The bass bite has been great on the Altamaha system. Bill Stewart fished with me on Friday in the lower Altamaha,…
The bites have mostly been good this week. The Altamaha system bass bite has been great. Saltwater has provided a good bite when you could get out. Several days this week it was howling! At least two river records were set this week. Check out the write-ups in the Altamaha and Withlacoochee sections. Altamaha/Ocmulgee River:…
Saltwater: Inshore: Capt. David Newlin reports, “The best fishing of the year is always the month of September on the Georgia coast. The fish catching here is as good as anywhere in the world in September. I have fished all over the South and no place has fish catching like we do in September. The…
Crab-Stuffed Shrimp The dish that caused the judging to go into overtime at the 2024 AWF Wildgame Cookoff was a crab-stuffed shrimp dish prepared by the Hog Heaven team of Hartselle. Jody Wynn said he used 9-12 count (number of shrimp per pound) white shrimp to prepare the dish. 1 pound blue crab claw meat…
Smoke On The Water Red Snapper Another example of using prime Alabama Gulf Seafood landed the Jackson Volunteer Fire Department’s team in third place in the 2024 AWF Wildgame Cookoff competition that featured a plethora of delicious wild game, fish and fowl preparations. 6 fresh or frozen red snapper filets, preferably sliced into ½-inch-thick pieces…
You never know what you’re going to catch when you head out into the magical waters of the Georgia coast… and apparently you never know how you’re going to catch it either. You’ve heard of fish jumping in the boat, right? Now a big, tasty red snapper would be welcomed, but there are some fish…
