Hello Illinois dwelling companions, i have been on the hunt for a good fishing club/team in the Chicago area. anyone got any good suggestions for me?

I'm at least a year out from looking to join a fishing club. I'm spending this year working on my fishing.

Don't know of any clubs

Hope you find one

Do you live in the suburbs? Do you have transportation? Do you have a boat? I have a lot of suggestions. Pm me I can give you several clubs.

BP oil spill in Lake Michigan http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-bp-whiting-crude-oil-lake-michigan-spill-20140325,0,3069441.story

Sounds like they got it under control

I hope so, that is a Great.......Lake ! 

 

Sorry couldnt help myself !

 

These oil spills are bad news coming. 

Every year these companies don't maintain, repair , & update their infrastructure the more this can happen !

Was this human and/or mechanical error ? a malfunction could mean ether one or both !

Imagine this happening on a 10,000 acre or less lake.

I would be a complete from scratch restart after cleanup.

Saw lot of small ponds are

Melted today

Can't wait to get out this weekend

It's about time. Hopefully with this wind and warmth and the forecasted rain, we should have a lot of open water in the next week or so.

Halle-freakin-lluja.

I have heard from a couple different fishermen that they had a fish kill at sag quarry. One side seems ok but dead bass and other fish were seen floating on the west side if i remember correctly.

Correction ! Fishermen told me today that it is sag quarry east that has the fish kill.

Can't wait to see the devastation of fish kill in Wisconsin....

More than a handful of fish kills. Water was 44 Sunday and I found plenty of bait although fishing was slow. Shad kills being reported pretty widespread. Small shallow lakes like Eureka larger fish kills. I would imagine spring lake and a few more could be hurt.

Fished dawson with 7 hdi and it is amazing. Like watching tv at the bow now. No interference or other issues with installation.

I read elsewhere Herrick Lake in Wheaton may have froze solid and dead fish are everywhere

Local farm pond in champaign is completely dead. Tons of dead fish. 

Also a heads up. Our High School tournament has a field of 75 boats and is completely full. It is this weekend Sunday, April 6th on Clinton Lake. This tournament is going to be huge and the prizes even bigger. Thanks for the support guys!! 

 

Fished a local pond today

No bites but a beautiful day and tried out the new set ups

I'm assuming no fish kill since no fish were floating?

Going out to Long Lake today with my buddy at 11:00. Will let you know how we do when I get back.
