Commercial fishermen can take to the water beginning at 12:00 AM on January 1, 2023, to take advantage of the opening day of shad season.
We have increased the reward values of tagged shad the agency is releasing in the Altamaha River, with rewards ranging from $10-$100. We hope that encourages increased participation by fishermen in the critically important shad survey.
2023 Shad Season River Regulations:
Altamaha River: The Altamaha River downstream from the Seaboard Coastline Railroad Bridge is open for commercial shad fishing Monday - Friday. Waters of the Altamaha River system upstream of the Seaboard Coastline Railroad Bridge and below the U.S. Highway 1 Bridge are open Tuesday – Saturday, including the Ohoopee River downstream of the U.S. Highway 1 Bridge. All waters of the Altamaha River system above the U.S. Highway 1 Bridge, including the Ocmulgee and Oconee rivers, are closed to commercial fishing.
Savannah River: The Savannah River is open for commercial shad fishing downstream from the I-95 Bridge Tuesday - Friday. Waters upstream of the I-95 Bridge and below the U.S. Highway 301 Bridge are open Wednesday - Saturday. All waters of the Savannah River above the U.S. Highway 301 Bridge are closed to commercial fishing. Only drift nets may be used downstream of a line between the mouth of Knoxboro Creek and McCoys Cut at Deadman's Point.
The Ogeechee, Satilla and St. Marys rivers are not open to commercial shad fishing.
Legal Net Guidelines for Commercial Shad Fishing:
- The minimum mesh size for legal set or drift shad nets is 4 ½ inches stretched.
- Set nets must be placed at least 600 feet apart and should be limited to 100 feet in length.
- Set nets must clearly display the owners name and commercial fishing license number.
- Drift nets shall not be fished closer than 300 feet apart and are limited to a maximum of 1,000 feet in length in saltwater.
- Set nets and drift nets must be situated to allow one-half the stream width to be open and free for the passage of fish.
- All set nets must have one end secured to the stream bank and must be buoyed at the outer (seaward) end so they will be clearly visible to other boaters.
- Sturgeon, game fish other than American shad or hickory shad, and all species of catfish taken in set or drift nets must be released unharmed into the waters where they were captured.
For a complete set of commercial fishing regulations, visit Coastalgadnr.org/CommercialFishing or contact any of the following WRD law enforcement offices: Brunswick (912) 264-7237; Thomson (706) 595-4211 or Metter (912) 685-2145.
Shad season will run through midnight Mar. 31, 2023.

This very rare golden crappie came from Missouri, but the golden trait has been documented in GA, several times in Lake Sinclair. http://bit.ly/3A1j496
We have updated our map to include all the new sites that have been recently added!

I borrowed this from a friend, it was too cute not to share 😉. Little Johnny loved to fish and would always catch a cooler full. One day a DNR Ranger
was checking license and safety equipment at Deans Landing when Little Johnny pulled up. The Ranger noticed the cooler full of fish and asked could he go fishing with Little Johnny. Johnny said sure be here in the morning. So the next day, they went up river to Johnny’s honey hole, when the Ranger noticed there was not any fishing poles, reels or bait. About that time Johnny open up a box and lit a stick of dynamite and threw it into the river. After the kaboom ,Johnny took his dip net and scooped up the fish. The Ranger who was astonished at what he just seen, yelled at Johnny and said you can’t do that, it’s against the law. Johnny took another stick of dynamite lit it and handed it to the Ranger and asked are you gonna sit there and wiite me a ticket while holding that dynamite or are you gonna fish?
