well we went over the weekend before the water jumped again and found NO crappie. But did good on Bass and large blue gills around pool 18.

With water levels up for the most of the year so far we haven't been but I was wondering if anyone has been fishing the Mississippi yet this year? And if so, what pools and how has your fishing...

It is 10 bucks to launch, or 45 for a year long pass. 40HP max on the lake.

Went out on Lake Bloomington for Fathers day...once you got past all the boaters out there the fishing wasn't to bad. Not as good as the HOI toury a couple weeks before. But we where able to find a...

ok...so when and where is the next one???

I took weight of all the fish we caught on Saturday at is was a total of 26.2 Everyone who didn't come really missed out on this one. Thanks for having us out!

So you gonna be up all night again before this one...maybe you need to get some sleep. The all nighter didn't help you last month! LOL. Went out and fished Bloomington today. Killed them all...

I did try this with the bags...it works but not as easy as one might think. The nice part about it is that you can save and reuse your buckets. Bad part is it takes a LOT longer and you have to...

Really you can fish the main...but most fish the side channels. I haven't been down south where you are, but like Sparky 197...I fish just south of Burlington and we fish mostly back water...

Ok...Here are some of the wood ones we did last night. Plan to dump these and let them set for about two weeks before we try to fish them. I figure if we dump them ten yards from the PVC ones and...

I know my wife and I would have some interest!!! Can you send me any info you all have come up with?

Sounds like a great time...where are the rules posted for the event? Where do we sign up (lake side or at Presleys)?

ok...We went out and fished them about three days ago and caugt a few nice ones. Two at 12 and one at 13". No small ones as of yet. The water temp was about 60 but now there has been a cold front...

I have only been stationed out here for six years now and in the last six years I have had an eye opening exeriance!!! This state is so very special when it comes to the laws and taxes! I'm from...

Ok...first and foremost. Is the state going to want to publish who has the CC permit like they want to do with the FOID info??? And being that I'm in the military and have served overseas as most...

So how long is much longer???

Nope...I have Vet plates on mine. IronHead was my first Harley! Still have the old beast in the garage. I did pretty well at South Spring lake again this weekend. Sunday was COLD but they was...

nope to sanding the PVC...I thought about that but didn't do it. So you've had much better luck with doing it that way?

Ok...the darn things have finally dried!!! Take a look and please give some feed back. I am sinking these this afternoon and will fish them in about two weeks for the first test!

No. I don't drive an SS. And really I don't hit the Ep area that offten. Unless I'm going to the Boat!!! Do you ever fish the banner area?

And about spring lake (north)...I haven't tried it for Crappie yet. I know the water temp is a couple colder on that than it is on south lake (which was 45 last friday). I normally wait for the...

I haven't heard about anything up north yet. I know the back waters of the mississippi still aren't giving any up. So I guess we sit and wait another week or two!

ok...I've got three done now. Had to wait for the rain to let off a bit before I could do them. I will have pics to post by tomorrow. The three I did if place in a Tirangle should cover an area of...

Ok...So it seems that the crappie are starting to really bite in the state of IL...but has anyone been catching any around the Peoria area. I have caught a few on spring lake south already, than...

Thanks for sharing that Vid...It was great and Once again I've learned more!!! I really liked the wooden stake condos. Here is a question about those...How often do you get snagged up on the wood? ...

They look great!!! Any idea where I can get cane like that around cen. IL??? I think those would work a whole lot better than a PVC Condo!

Well starting this afternoon I'm going to be building some PVC condos to sink this weekend. This is my first attempt at doing them, but I've read a LOT from everyone on here and think I just might...

OK...well it says to tell a bit about myself and a lot about my fishing!!! They are pretty much the same! I'm in the Army, have been for 12+ years now. On my off time me and the wife fish and ride...
