Where in illinois I'm from Southern Illinois but stay in mississippi always looking for more spot to fish when I come home to visit. Me and my brother love hitting the strip mines in pickneyville

I live and fish in east central Illinois. I fish mainly smaller bodies of water such as ponds and small lakes for gills. Lake Shelbyville and Lake Mattoon are my favorite crappie lakes.
