Georgia Coastal Fishing Charts
• Chart order change in effect for 2009 •
INSHORE FISHING CHARTS
This series of five fishing charts is designed to provide a concise guide to recreational saltwater fishing along the coast of Georgia. It is difficult for the occasional visitor to Georgia's estuarine and inland waterways to know where to fish. These coastal guides are intended to provide the best information available on when, where, and how to catch fish. They also incorporate information on fishing sites, camps, and marinas. The five charts were developed by counties: Chatham, Bryan/Liberty, McIntosh, Glynn, and Camden.
Charts are free & can be picked up at the MAREX Aquarium on Skidaway Island Mondays - Fridays 9am - 4 pm, and Saturdays between noon and 5 pm (excluding state holidays). To receive charts by mail you must provide one self addressed & stamped envelope with proper postage for the number of maps you wish to receive (maximum of 5). Please refer to the information below to calculate proper shipping cost.
The single envelope must be a standard 9" x 12" self addressed with proper postage affixed to the envelope. There is a maximium of 1 set of 5 (Chatham, Bryan & Liberty, McIntosh, Glynn, and Camden) charts per order. Each order cannot exceed 5 charts. We are only able to accept cash or checks.
