Did you know one of the largest bass ever caught in the world was caught in Georgia? From reservoirs, streams and rivers to lakes of all sizes and saltwater fishing, the abundant waters found in Georgia, especially in Georgia State Parks, make for a true angler’s paradise.
Georgia State Parks are inviting residents to get out on the water in honor of National Fishing and Boating Week from June 4 to June 12 and enjoy a weekend full of boating and fishing at one of Georgia’s State Parks. In honor of the national observance, state parks are offering two free fishing days — June 4 and June 11, and dozens of kids fishing events.
