LAURASDAD Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I just posted this in the Central region so my apologies. I am looking for a recommendation for a good lake in southern IL. My buddy and I are not the best anglers, but we do enjoy wetting our line. I prefer smaller lakes as I find them more manageable. Thanks in advance Larry Quote
Scott75 Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Need more information, what's small 500 acre or 50 and are you boat fishing or bank. Quote
LAURASDAD Posted March 19, 2015 Author Posted March 19, 2015 Thanks for your reply. Good point on how big is small. 500 acres is fine. Lake of the Ozarks is too big; lol. We do have a boat with trolling motor and 50 HP motor. I appreciate your help. Quote
countryboy65 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I fished Kinkaid several times last year, pretty close to home. i like it but have not caught anything big yet. clear and weedy, lots of cover. Also, you have the chance of hooking a huge musky Quote
Scott75 Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Little Grassy has been hot the last couple years. Cedar lake is always good too. Quote
