Thank you for visiting the Georgia Department of Natural Resources – Wildlife Resources Division blog. The WRD blog is a resource for those interested in hunting, fishing, conservation, boating and law enforcement efforts across the state.
The goal for this blog is to give visitors an up to date look at what goes into making Georgia one of the top states in the country for hunting, fishing, boating, and what it takes to maintain the diverse wildlife in our state.
Through the end of 2011, the WRD is also celebrating its 100th year anniversary! To view the history of our past 100 years, visit out our WRD Centennial Website. Remember, you can also visit the Georgia Wildlife Resources Division Website to find out any additional information on the WRD and hunting, fishing, boating and wildlife in Georgia.
We appreciate your interest in the Georgia Wildlife Resources Division!

When will the public Fishing area in Pulaski/Bleckley county
GA be open again? It was closed due to water leakage. I have heard spring of 2014 and I have heard spring of 2015. We sure do miss it being open.
Georgia DNR, Wildlife Resources Division
It is closed until further notice, but I know that it won’t reopen this spring. Any updates on the closure/reopening will be reflected on the webpage at http://georgiawildlife.com/PFA/Ocmulgee.
