Do you remember the first fish you caught? Even if you don’t remember all the details, I bet you remember how it made you feel. You can help generate the same feeling for your kids when you bring them to a Family or Kids Fishing Event, suggests the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division.

Before heading out to the woods for a turkey hunt, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division encourages all hunters to take time to review important turkey hunting safety tips.

Let’s talk turkey. The Georgia turkey hunting season to be exact. The statewide turkey hunting season opens on private land on Sat., April 1, 2023, and on public lands, including Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) and National Forest land, on Sat., April 8, 2023.

The last week of March hitting the calendar means trout stocking trucks hitting the road headed to your favorite North Georgia waterways. Trout fishing opportunities will be abundant as the Georgia Trout Program returns to stocking over one million trout in 2023.

Springtime is prime time along Georgia’s Colonial Coast Birding Trail to see birds decked out in beautiful breeding plumage.

Before the statewide turkey hunting season opens, youth and mobility-impaired hunters utilizing private land have an early chance to harvest a gobbler during the special opportunity turkey season March 25-26, 2023, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division.

The forecast is excellent for a successful fishing trip!
