| : Hi to everybody! : I love fishing and I moved to Chicago (downtown).
: I would like to know hot spots in the Chicago area and farther where to
: go and fish basses.
: I'd like also to know about Illinois or Indiana hot spots in a ray of
: 100miles from Chicago.
: any suggestions?
: anyone from Chicago here to share experiences and to fish together?
: where can I rent a boat for salmon and trouts fishing? Hi; http://www.chicagofishing.org has a handy dandy table... it may not seem
all that intuitive at first, but if you click on "bass", it'll only show you
lakes known to have bass... same thing for trout (although it won't list
lakes with both bass and trout exclusively, you'd have to list one and then
then other) also, click on rentals at the top to get a list of lakes where
boat rentals are available... Print out a map (there's over 100 maps online and a link with printing
instructions near the bottom of each page), check out a photo so you have
a idea where your heading (is it wooded or surrounded by houses or businesses).
Check out the reports page for links to various discussion sites like the
Great Lakes Sport Fishing Council, Windy City Fishing, Chi-town Angler, Lake
Link and so on.. Also on the links page are a number of charter services
that asked to be listed. Many of the charter services used to be free if
the day was a bust... also, check out Dale Bowmans column in the Chicago
Sun-Times as there are usually a list of charter services there as well.
