GA Wildlife

I have no idea which parts of alligators are illegal to possess, and I do not want to know.  Do you? We have Rangers from the Wildlife Resource Division of the Department of Natural Resources to do that stuff for us.  Good thing. The latest Law Enforcement Report proves that Rangers are enforcing the law: Illegal […]

DNR “Investigative Ranger of the Year”

Cprl. Keener

If it weren’t for the DNR’s Wildlife Resources Division there would be a lot more “wild life” in Georgia. DNR Rangers are the ones who nab perps (“bad boys” for those who don’t watch reality TV shows) for shooting wildlife from the comfort of their pickup trucks on public roads, and other beer-induced activities. Without […]

Fish Attractors on Lake Allatoona

fish attractors

When you think of “fish attractors,” my friend Don Poole probably comes to mind.  Nobody can attract more fish than Don.  No, he can’t catch them … but, boy, can he attract them.  If you cannot go fishing with Don, you can use a different type of fish attractor. Underwater woody debris — such as […]
