GA DNR 2021 Fishing Forecasts Give You the Angling Edge

The Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division (WRD) staff recently updated their fishing forecasts for 32 Georgia reservoirs and 18 rivers.

“It’s one thing to be able to offer general fishing tips, but these fishing forecasts provide specific information about each water body. They provide best bets, technique tips and more and are even connected to an interactive map, providing an additional layer of information to this already excellent resource,” says Scott Robinson, Chief of the WRD Fisheries Management Section.

Fisheries biologists gathered all the information you’ll need, and made it available in one convenient location.
