Good to see you Toad always fun messing with you By the way we cleaned out the junk yard today took all in for scrap metal just a few really large pieces still laying in there Jib hoist on the boat gave out lol
Had some fun on the Ville for 3 days with some good friends!! Friday I had a full boat with 4 guys. Took out Bowhunter Pat out for a few hours showing him my set up. My Crankn Machine has been a work in progress for the last 3 years with some guiding help from my Good Friend Wilbur. Everyone got an eye full when they saw the full set up pushing 4 and pulling 8!!! Caught plenty of fish Friday just trolling around on the south end. Saturday was a rough one to wake up to and right away I got reports of that the bite slowed down so we switched gears and went spider rigging in the main lake. We found the overs in 10 to 12 FOW on the main lake and the 22 FOW flats adjacent to the spawning coves. Saturday was a blast catching around 70 to 80 fish but still a lot of throw backs. Sunday hit our same spots for 3 hours and caught a nice mess to clean and went home. Crappie camp was fun and enjoyed the conversations with everyone. See ya all next month or so I'll be back down for some more Junk Yard Slabs!!!!
I'll call ya when the river goes back down and we're gonna pound the cat!! Get your knifes sharpened up. Your gonna need them!!
Toad - how many poles can you have out per person in IL while spider rigging? Here in IA you can buy a 3rd pole license but I thought IL was only 2 poles?
Thanks,

most lakes are 2 pole, but the corp lakes are 3 for trolling
Thanks for taking me out buddy. Next time if you will have me, maybe I won't be so busy and I can stay out longer.
