• Colquitt County professional fisherman J.Todd Tucker was the subject of part of column written in last Sunday’s Augusta Chronicle by Outdoors Editor Rob Pavey.

Tucker, who travels some 38,000 a year competing in fishing tournaments throughout the country, promotes Columbia County and the Clarks Hill Partnership with his boat.

His boat is “wrapped,” with “Fish Clarks Hill Lake” on one side and “Fish Columbia County, Ga.” on the other.

While he competes in Bassmaster and FLW tournaments, Tucker will be talking up Columbia County’s outdoor recreation opportunities.

He says Clarks Hill is his favorite fishing lake.
