Recap
GRFers gathered
once again at the Flint River for a weekend of fun and fellowship.
Read the
full
blow-by-blow right here and enjoy all the pictures!
Short Casts
Shoal Bass Alliance:
If you haven't seen it already,
make sure to check out the
Shoal Bass Alliance's new website! Shoal bass only thrive in
certain parts of three river river systems in the world (all in
Georgia, too!), and each of these systems faces pressures that could
threaten these shoal bass populations.
You can find a printable
membership application here and I strongly urge you to support
SBA either financially or by volunteering in some way.
Creekstalker News:
My family and I went on a month-long, cross-country camping trip
last summer that included some river fishing.
I've
written about the fishing and boating aspects of the trip here
and included lots of pictures! It reads like a promotion for the
Ultimate (which it was), but I thought I'd share it here anyway!
Here's a highlight:
BasserDrew News:
Longtime GRFer Drew Gregory
(BasserDrew) has launched his own website! Check it out to see
some of the coolest (and only!) river bassin' videos on the
internet. Drew's website is also full of trip reports, fishing tips,
and other cool stuff. Drew has been garnering some regional and
national attention for his exploits on the river and there are some
more big things on the horizon for Drew!
MacBass News:
Longtime GRFer MacBass is moving to Arizona. MacBass has been one of
GRF's best fishermen and an active poster on the GRF Message Board
for a long time. He's also accompanied dozens of GRFers down various
middle Georgia rivers over the years. I've no doubt that MacBass
will report back fairly often once he gets the desert river bass
figured out and would be glad to show any GRFers the lay of the land
should we find ourselves in Grand Canyon country!
White Bass News:
They are just starting to move up the rivers in NE Georgia and I
suspect that's the case everywhere else.
GRF Rod Raffle News:
Congrats to Rob Desso for winning the New Year's Day Rod Raffle. Rob
will get a custom-made rod graciously built by GoneToSeed. If you
want to donate to GRF and have a shot at your own GoneToSeed
creation, just look to the left and donate whatever you want!
