Yeah, if it is a male, he would have some awesome offspring. I understand they stocked some males about a year ago. This one was a little over three pounds, so it seems to fit the growth rate of the stock. Who knows, maybe it was an undersized female. It would be the first one I've caught out there (male or undersized female).

I thought I saw you out there on Friday, Chris. I was expecting you there Saturday, but someone said you had to work. Must have been another guy with a black dog on his boat. You'll have to make the one at Flat Creek. It's right off I 75. I started to bring my kids to this one. I am pretty sure I will at Flat Creek. It is set up more for kids than Ocmulgee.

O.K. The wing span of a bald eagle isn't seven feet... so I was either delirious or seeing things or whatever.... But it was a large bird of prey that I saw. Probably about the size of a bald eagle. I thought it looked like an osprey, but the one I saw looked lighter. (I was looking from underneath, of course) The photos of ospreys online appear too dark. Any ideas?

Directions to Flat Creek PFA from Perry: From Interstate 75, take exit No. 134 (South Perry Parkway), and turn west. Travel about 0.25 miles, and turn left (south) on Hwy 41. Go approx 3 1/2 miles, and turn left into Flat Creek Public Fishing Area.

No it's not as far.



It's just off I-75 so it's way west of Ocmulgee and just a few miles further South...unless you're coming from NE GA? It's just a little South and west of Perry, GA.

Tony was telling me that the special events pond at Ocmulgee requires 10 kids or more and is loaded with hybrids. I wouldn't mind getting my kids cub scout den to go. If any of you guys want to do a kids event, let me know.
