TimU Posted May 2, 2013 Report Posted May 2, 2013 Saturday 5/18 The Chicago Region May outing will be held at the private lake behind the Onion Pub & Brewery in Lake Barrington. With May being prime spawning season for our beloved smallmouth, this outing will keep us off the rivers to let the smallies do their "thing". The lake behind the restaurant is deep and filled with largemouth bass and gets very little fishing pressure. The owner has asked the we practice "Catch and Release" and come in for lunch and drinks when we are finished.We will meet in the parking lot at 7am and fish until around 11am when the restaurant opens, then go inside for some food and drink This will be shore fishing only. and will be a "Rain or Shine" event.Onion Pub & Brewery22221 North Pepper Rd.Lake Barrington, IL 60010Visit www.onionbrewery.com to see the menu.Look forward to seeing everyone there!

TimU Posted May 10, 2013 Author Report Posted May 10, 2013 Extended forecast is calling for Low 70's and partly cloudy.....but we all know that will change everyday for the next week. Hopefully the weather is good, but we will have this outing "Rain or Shine" so be prepared to bring rain gear if the forecast changes. Last time we had an outing here it was raining, but everyone still caught some fish regardless of whether you were a fly guy or using spinning gear. Looking forward to seeing everyone who can make it out....Even Jude's usually grumpy self! Quote
Ed Buric Posted May 10, 2013 Report Posted May 10, 2013 Jude will be just fine if he gets his greasy breakfast beforehand. Quote
SKollmann Posted May 10, 2013 Report Posted May 10, 2013 Count me in . . . with neither my canoe nor my walleye fishing boat in tow. Quote
Mike Antikauskas Posted May 13, 2013 Report Posted May 13, 2013 I'll be there. Look forward to it! Quote

maineman Posted May 15, 2013 Report Posted May 15, 2013 Tim, thanks for picking up the ball on this outing. I was just thinking about this the other day and wondering whether the Onion Pub owners would still be interested in entertaining our little group. Hope to see you there. Ron G Quote
