Fishing Tackle Loaner Program

The Fishing Tackle Loaner Program (FTLP), developed by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division (WRD) and Georgia State Parks and Historic Sites is funded through the Sportfish Restoration program and provides a way for budding anglers to try fishing without having to purchase any equipment.

The goal of FTLP is to remove the barrier of needing your own fishing tackle and to encourage fishing activities at Georgia State Parks and Historic Sites. 

WRD provides rods, reels and tackle box equipment to participating State Parks and Historic Sites Offices.  Interested visitors can inquire at the park office and check out the equipment for the day.
