Darryl Worley Volunteers to Help America's Fish and Wildlife

Darryl Worley Volunteers to Help America's Fish and Wildlife: "What started as a fishing promotion with one of the world’s most recognizable songs, has led Country music star Darryl Worley to become an outdoor ambassador for the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency and other similar state organizations across the country. Darryl and songwriting pal Wynn Varble recorded “The Fishin’ Hole,” better known as “The Andy Griffith Show” theme song, and the song is being offered through a text-to-give campaign to raise money for relief efforts caused by a wave of natural disasters that impacted numerous states this spring and summer."

Scale-Shattering Arkansas Striped Bass: Not a State Record but Possibly Worth $1 Million

Scale-Shattering Arkansas Striped Bass: Not a State Record but Possibly Worth $1 Million: "A series of setbacks has prevented Rodney Ply from registering his striped bass as an Arkansas state record even though it weighed 4 pounds more than the current state record-holder. However, his big fish beat the world record for a landlocked striped bass by about half a pound and Ply may win $1 million if the International Game Fish Association (IGFA) honors his catch, and no angler catches a bigger fish in the next three months."
