I added one to my old 80s Mercury 20hp. I had an "incident" a while back and decided it was worth it. :)

Thank you sincerely for the info! I will be trying a little of everything during the night. Crappie, catfish, maybe a few bass and or Walleye. :) Depends what I can find biting, if anything! :)

Hi all!

I have never been to Clinton, but am going night fishing this weekend. Can you please give me a general area of the gravel pits? I haven't been able to find them on a map. Yet. :)

Or...

Peoria County OK'd it too. The issue is, that does not mean you will not get arrested, just that you will not be prosecuted. I’d be careful with this. I know I don’t want an arrest on my record.

Holy SMOKES!! Where did you catch them?

Yep - another Vanillia body spray user. It works well. It is a little embarrasing to have it in the tackle box but it works!!!

Since the temperature has dropped so much, at least in Peoria area, where are the Crappie hiding right now?

What depth are the buggers hiding at!?!?!?

Good question. I am hoping to get some advice too. I am taking my son out Friday night so I hope to have an idea what depth they are at. I am going to Banner Marsh.

I took an old reel and restrung it. Then I taped the end of the fishing line, with the bog ole sinker on it, and taped it to the end of a tape measure.

I let out about 10 feet of line, then...

Awesome! You guys ROCK!!

Hi all!

I am throwin this out to the old timers, or anyone who knows! :) Doh

I want to know any secrets, or ideas for finding depths at a new lake. Anyone had any luck with this?

I am...

Great!! Thanks for the answers!!

More questions! :)

Are snakeden and Lake Victoria the same thing?

In Banner Marsh the "strip Mines"?

I am working on getting a boat soon, so I need to know these things!

LOL!! Rofl

Thanks guys! I actually go to Shelbyville too, but sometimes it is nice to be able to stay closer to home.

This is a good topic. :)

I live in Peoria too.

I am heading to Banner Marsh today with the boy to try it out. I have never been there, and we are bank fishing, so if anyone has any pointers -...

I'm in too! I'll bring some dynamite so we can REALLY clean that place out!

Are you saying he should go to Lake Mattoon? Rofl

I think two of those fish know what's up... :eek:

Thanks for being honest. I am done responding too, now that I know the reason for your posts.

I am up north, but I am in too! I will be the wildcard! You can send me off trying to noodle for Crappie. That should get a few laughs!

Very nice! I need to start fishing with Dynamite! Hands Clapping

Are you upset that others share information? Or, maybe I missed where someone asked you directly for information?

Everyone (as far as I know) is free to share, or not share info, pictures, videos...

I didn't think the fish was that big until I saw the Coke can next to it! :eek:

Nicely done!

Hi agian guys!

Just wanted to update this one last time with our results.

We did not get skunked, but didn't do real well either.

Like many others we found some small ones, but could never...

Can you clarify this?

stay away from wolf creek around island water only 18" deep between island & shore.

Thanks again!

Just for kicks and grins, where are the Largemouth at right now? I have never fished this early in the year for anything! :)

If one of the guys was wearing a skirt, it wasn't us! Honest!

LOL! Rofl

Thanks Birdman! Very useful information!

We (in the past) have only went a few times a year, so we are both pretty amateur!

The last two times we went last year were REALLY good though, I...

Man, thanks so much for posting!!!

Thanks! We have a 4 wheel drive, so we are good there! I never even thought about those kinds of things! Like, the cleaning station being closed. That is a new one on me!
