The Georgia Department of Natural Resources just released its annual Georgia Fishing Forecast, which offers complete fishing information for the state lake or river you plan to visit.

The DNR Wildlife Resources Division fisheries biologists and technicians annually update fishing forecasts for more than 30 Georgia reservoirs and 19 rivers. These forecasts are available in one location at GeorgiaWildlife.com/fishing-forecasts.

"If you know the location where you will be fishing, you need to check out the Georgia Fishing Forecast for that water body," said Scott Robinson, chief of the Fisheries Management Section.
