Tis the time of year when this scribler wishes the entire bound aries of the lake was in the state of Fla. The Fla. Gator hunting season with 1400 licensed hunt ers could have a grand ole time here, then the stocking of hybrids. Ga. don't stock hybrids in the lake but Fla. Does. The week has been a tough one on the p’ole fishermen on the lake, one feller sed Saturday that if a fish had been caught that day it’d be “wind burnt”. The wind blew so hard some areas of the lake was covered by 4&5 foot waves. The Guys & Dolls Tournament was a great success. The cold weather and blue bird days kept the weights from being so great but the thrill was still there as it has been from 1981 when we started with them. David & Pansey Milsaps of Ga. won the Friday event with 24.68 lbs., Steve & Darla Lowder was It wouldn't happen without vol unteers! Over 100 cleanups are scheduled for "Rivers Alive," Georgia's Tenth Annual River Cleanup campaign. These clean ups will occur statewide through out the month of October. Volun teers are needed to participate in these cleanups to help preserve the state's 70,150 miles of rivers and streams. The mission of "Riv ers Alive" is to create awareness of and involvement in the preser vation of Georgia's water re sources. The Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) en courages sportsmen's clubs, civic groups, church groups, scout troops, businesses and interested citizens to volunteer for a cleanup in their area. To find a river cleanup near you, go to the "Riv ers Alive" website at www.riversalive.org and select "Statewide cleanups" or "Atlanta area cleanups." "The Rivers Alive Cleanup is one of the most important events in this state," said Harold Reheis, Director of DNR Environmental Protection Division. "Not only do we remove thousands of pounds of debris from the rivers, but we second with 21.65 lbs., John & Dona Bransetta was third with 17.49 lbs. I think 8 boats out of 50 didn’t weigh in a fish. The 4th and last team tourna ment of Wingates Lodge took place Saturday, and did the wind howl. Young Brad Hambric & his Father stole the show and first place. Brad who is 15 & fishing his first tournament on his third cast landed an 8 lbs. bass. They then caught 4 or 5 more to have 12.74 lbs. Robert & Rick Tindell was second & Chuck Hawes & Howard Cartonrightwar 3rd. It is also good to see Brooks Cockran, grandson of Jim Cockran, who was 10 on that day, they took 9th place and a check home. At this writing the water temp is 77°, the lake is basic clear. Small bass will bite but the big ones are slow. Bream, shell- cracker, and catfish are bitting together deep. The speck are get ting better everyday. educate and inform the citizens of Georgia about the importance of maintaining our river systems." Since its inception many as pects of the campaign have in creased, including the number of participating volunteers, the amount of garbage collected and the number of event organizers.
