NW Region Kishwaukee River Float Outing


Recommended Posts

AUTUMN ON THE KISHWAUKEE RIVER

 

Saturday, September 28

We'll start off of course at the Cherry Valley Cafe for some good breakfast and smallmouth talk around 8:30am

After the good food we'll shuttle some cars around and try to start the float by 10am.

This will probably be a full day float so be sure to pack a lunch.

More info as the date draws near.

 

Please let us know if you plan to attend.

Would like to have cars shuttled around and begin the float at 10am.

Of course we'll be meeting for breakfast beforehand at the Cherry Valley Cafe.

I'm thinking we'll just float from Cherry Valley's Bauman Park to New Milford's Atwood Park. That's an all dayer.

 

Jesse - Thanks for the transport offer.

I will have to pull off at the South Branch at Blackhawk, I am a DD for a pub crawl and will need to head back.

I'm in plus one. Weather & water conditions look good. They are calling for a low of 57 when you wake up the am and then up to low 80's in the afternoon. All day probably won't work for me either but there is nothing wrong with having options. We are all captains of our own ships. Take out at Kish FP for 1/2 dayers and all dayers can go for it to Atwood or even the airport area. I love river smallmouth fishing in the month of September and this nice little warming trend should be good for the fishing. I like using lures I can cast a long distance in the low clear water. Walk the dog topwaters have been working good for me with a plastic follow up bait for the ones that hit and miss on the topwater.

I'm a no go, working the weekend.

Too bad, I was really looking forward to see your boat on the Kishwaukee. Really liked the set up at Shabbona and wanted to see it in the smaller water.

Would anybody have a problem if we were to bump up the breakfast time to 8am instead of 8:30am ?

 

Let me know.

 

It's suppose to be a nice day with highs in the low 80's and a 60% chance of rain showers late Saturday night and into Sunday.

For all your latest weather info watch WISA Weather Network every day through Friday during the noon hour.
