hello all, hope everyone is doing well as we enter the "offseason." i'm reaching out to you all about places to store a boat cheaply. real shot in the dark here, but thought i'd test the waters to see if any ISAers store boats somewhere, or give me guidance on where to store a boat. obviously price is most important. i've looked around chicago as i live in the city, but it seems pretty expensive. any suggestions/options are much appreciated. best, Rory D

ill be there as well. family is visiting this coming weekend, so my old man will join too

thanks again for the replies. glad to be a part of an active group. i'll keep an eye out for when the river planting is on the forums.

thank you for the replies. i look forward to start exploring some local waters. I looked at the calendar on the website, and saw both of those events. i would like to attend both, i cannot make it this sunday because of the cubs game. i will try to come to the picnic on the 29th, that should work thanks for the replies

ISA, Hope all is well, and everyone is having tight lines this summer. My name is Rory, and I just moved to Chicago to start working next week. I am from Nashville, TN, and graduated from Indiana University last May. I am excited to be living up here, and want to start finding some bronzebacks. I am an avid fly fisherman, and have started fly tying in the past year. I am excited to join the ISA, and meet some of y'all. In the meantime, can anyone give me a lead on a place close to the city. I am living near Wrigley, but also have a car. I am going to check out the harbors soon, but have also done research on the rivers surrounding the Chicagoland area. The Fox and Des Plaines rivers look great, and I would love to gather some intel about where to wade and explore. I am excited to be here and ready to start catching fish. Rory
