u63405 Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Hey Mercury, where do ya go to catch them smallies?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercury Posted September 1, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 North of hanover IL, The apple (canyon) river. The rock river was said to have them too. But I would recomend that area to anyone looking for smallies. Shoot I even hit pool 12 of the mississippi, what a great bass hide out. Had a little tourney with a few of the other guys at the camp site. They say the bass werent biting. I say they werent looking. I wish the Illinois river was as good for bass as pool 12 is. (hwy 20 bridge and south) 5 lb large mouth bagged just south of the bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
