A new GA State Record Blue Catfish has been caught in Middle Georgia by a 15 year old, Tyler Dodson. Here is his bait, he mixed chili with jalapino pepper with sloppy joe mix, red kidney beans and primo catfish bait, sewed into a section of panty hose with a 5/0 hood empeded in it. Anyone with a 15 year old can appreciate that formula.
Things I see in weather changes, just hundreds of Robins about, about 4 acres of Blackbirds, thousands of Rice Birds in our area and 2 Ducks killed by road traffic.

This is good to know, the Court reversed it’s decision on the water wars. Atlanta can no longer negosiate an agreement with the Corps of Eng. It has to make terms with the Congress, and as an astute politician sed recently, “With-in 24 hours of spending the tax payers money the amount should be put on line so everyone can know where his tax doller is being spent.” Amen!
Kelly Brown had 10 Bass, one at 8.6 lbs. Al Carter had 10 Bass, one at 10 ½ , there was many other big fish caught.
Big, heavy Perch was taken over the weekend on Jigs, Small Diving Baits and Traps. There was many slabs taken, one boat had 60 biguns taken.
