New from Joliet

[AMC7]

Hi -

I am coming to you from Joliet, IL. This was my first year fishing. I was always interested in fishing but never committed to doing it. I went with a friend this summer and had an absolute blast. I purchased my first rod/reel from Gander Mountain. I went with an Ugly Stik GX2. It was only a few weeks later that I was able to get my second rod/reel through my 5 year work anniversary. It is a Fenwick rod with a Pflueger reel. I have been trying to go as much as possible. I carry two slim tackle boxes with worms, frogs, crankbaits, poppers and jigs. I am addicted to crankbaits. I do almost all my fishing from shore in local ponds. I landed two of my biggest fish just this week! Catch and release of course!

 

Let's go!

Welcome, You must be a neighbor, I'm in Joliet too. Next spring, you'll have to explore the rivers near Joliet for good smallmouth fishing.

Welcome.  Crankbaits can be an expensive addiction. Doesn't seem to stop many of us though.

You'd better brush up on your Blues Brothers references. SCMODS was a state police system. Joliet was where Jake was in prison.
