I am fortunate to live on a 50 acre lake that has a very healthy population of nice bass and bream and very little fishing pressure. I just wheel my kayak down to the water and hop in. If I want a change of scenary, there is a wildlife management area about 35 minutes from my house that has 23 lakes that vary in size from 3 acreas to 110 acreas and they are all good fishing. If I want to chase trout I can get to decent river fishing in an hour or travel another 45 minutes to the mountains for a very nice selection of smaller stream and ponds. Saltwater requires a bit more travel, around 4-5 hours drive to the coast for redfish etc. All-in-all, Georgia offers very good fishing without too much travel.
