Hello All,

This is Nathan from northern IL. I will fish for anything that swims but target bass 80% of the time. I mostly wade or yak the Fox river as my "home waters" but also drop the yak in misc. small ponds. Each year I take a few week trips to FLA, U.P. of MI, Door Co. WI, and next year adding TN to chase stripers.

For several years I would fish 4 days a week but was blessed with my first child, Aydan, last Nov. so he happily cuts into fishing and hunting time.

Anyway, I'll try and chip in what I can, certainly not a master but not my first redeo either.

Tried to post some photos but need 10 posts. :'(

tight lines,

Hoffman

Welcome.

Hoffman I'm sure I know you from another Chicagoland site. My "handle" is different, but does the avatar match?

There is an "IL. blog" so to speak on here to post local reports. It's in the Northeast Bass Fishing Thread.

Lots of good info here.

Welcome home!

Welcome aboard!
