Paul Trybul Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 The water gage is under 3.0ft and falling with no rain in the forecast. I think we are good to go. So far we have only had a few members RSVP. Still spots available if you are interested in fishing an area of IL untouched by the glaciers from the ice age.

Paul Trybul Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 Thank you to everyone that attended the Apple River outing last Saturday. We has 7 anglers attend, Paul T, PaulT SR, Allen R, Samantha R, Mark G, Terry D, and Sarah(taking the photo). We split up in groups and fished different sections. The flyfisher folks fished in one group and they did pretty good. I think Samantha caught the biggest at 16". Sarah and I caught around 5 in the 14-15" range but couldn't catch anything larger. We met back up for lunch and did a little fishing in the afternoon. The afternoon fishing was not as good as the morning fishing. I'm interested to hear if Allen & Samantha found a good afternoon bite. Probably over 100 smallmouth caught in the group while enjoying some of the best scenery northern IL has to offer.
