I have been having a heck of a time finding a club near men. I live in Greenville, Il which is kind of near lake Carlyle. Also, it is fairly close to St. Louis, which is a drive I would be willing to make, as my wife is from Florissant. If anyone can help me out, let me know. Thanks.

dane 1984,

Welcome aboard!

I hope you find a club.

This place has a pretty extensive listing of clubs in the bi-state area.

Another place to check for clubs is www.midamericaoutdoors.com It is also a great all around information site for fishing and hunting. Good Luck

I have fished with a club out of Dupo, IL the last two years with a buddy of mine. It is a team format and they fish about ten tournaments per year anywhere from Shelbyville to Egypt to Carlyle. If you are just looking to fish some tournaments soon, the Coffeen circuits start this weekend. There is a tourney on Sat. and one on Sun. Both start at 8 AM and go until 3 PM. These are also team formats. $60 for Sat. and $50 for Sun. These are per BOAT (2 man team). They run all winter. If nothing else, you can go up there for a weigh-in and talk to some of the locals who fish other clubs/circuits in the area. Good luck.
