State to build eight more boat mega-ramps

Eight more mega-boat ramps are set to be built around the state as part of the Go Fish Georgia program. The communities have agreed to match the state’s portion of construction costs. Locations include Buckeye Landing along the Oconee River in Laurens County, Lock and Dam Park on Lake Weiss in Floyd County, and George Bagby State Park in Clay County. The Go Fish Program is meant to attract boating and fishing tourism.
