The picnic festivities will begin at 10:00 am.You can arrive earlier should you wish to do some morning fishing in the Fox river. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug T Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 The only fee is the entrance to the Park, you dont need to register. Just come, try out the rods, watch the seminars and get a one on one casting lesson for free. Single , Switch or Spey, your choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Buric Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I heartily recommend that you attend the Illinois Smallmouth Alliance's second annual pot luck picnic. Which will be held at the nearby Glenwood Forest Preserve in Batavia Illinois this Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
