Lake Lanier fishing guide Shane Watson is a Hall of Famer.

The Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame and Museum, in Hayward, Wisc., inducted Watson as a "legendary guide" last week. Only 56 people have been recognized as legendary guides since 1992.

Watson was born and raised near Lake Lanier and has fished the lake for more than 35 years.
