Howdy from Illinois

Featured Replies

I actually joined this great site in February but have mostly just been reading up. But I figured it's about time I introduce myself. I live in a smalltown in illinois. I fish whenever I can, but my daughter keeps me pretty busy. Hopefully this next year I will be able to get her out a little more. She caught her first fish all by herself last summer. A little crappie on a rooster tail (not bad for a 3yr old).

Anyways, thanks for all the help I have and will recieve from you guys. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas!

Welcome.

Welcome from East-Central Illinois!

I went to SIUC and now drop pull down my jon boat every now and again. What are your favorite public lakes down there? I've been to Kinkaid, Little Grassy, Devils Kitchen, Crab Orchard, Cedar Lake and, once, Lake of Egypt. My favorite?...For scenery, it would probably be Cedar. But for fish...maybe Little Grassy. But I haven't done tremendously well anywhere so it's kind've up in the air. I never seem to time it right when I go down. Once, at Devils Kitchen, the bass weren't biting so I pulled out my flyrod and caught some big ol' punkinseeds off a sunny bank. That was as much fun as anything I've experienced.
