fish-fighting-illini Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 RAIN!!!!!! stinkin RAIN I say It has rained everyday starting Saturday. Most days it has rained all day long and I mean all 24hrs. Many were heavy all day rains no less. Arghhh! This on top of one of the wettest spring and summers on record ( 2nd wettest spring on record no less). Many peoples basements have been converted into temporary reservoirs. If you Texans were a little more due south your problem would be solved. Quote

Stasher1 Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I'm still confused over Prince and Milli Vanilli reference. Me too. :-[ I'm assuming he referring to Prince's "Purple Rain" and Milli Vanilli's "Blame it on the Rain" Quote

BassResource.com Advertiser FD. Posted November 21, 2009 BassResource.com Advertiser Posted November 21, 2009 I got it right away... maybe because I'm Quote
fish-fighting-illini Posted November 21, 2009 Author Posted November 21, 2009 This is where it gets tricky.. Were the other 2 actually singing? ;D Seems as though it should have been Milli all along not Nilli oh well Quote
fish-fighting-illini Posted November 21, 2009 Author Posted November 21, 2009 I think the news reported the other night that we have had rain for 153 days so far this year or of the lst 365? The longest streak w/o rain has been 9 days and only did that once maybe. Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted November 21, 2009 BassResource.com Administrator Posted November 21, 2009 I think we're going on 6 weeks straight of rain in my neck of the woods. But that comes with the territory. November is historically the wettest month of the year for us, and it's living up to those expectations! Quote
fish-fighting-illini Posted November 23, 2009 Author Posted November 23, 2009 Glenn, I checked and I think we are 7 of the last 8 but that was as far back as the weather web site went Quote

fish-fighting-illini Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 Funny, im mid illinois also and we havent gotten rain in.... Uhh, 3-4 days now? Were you joking or did you think I meant days? I meant 7 of the last 8 weeks it has rained and rained hard a lot of the day today. Maybe 8 of 9 now? Quote
aceman387 Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 don't look now but the rain is back,at least close by Chicago.gray skies and rain . thank god for bass resource. Quote
Lucky Craft Man Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I hate to say it, but send some of that rain our way. the Steelhead in Lake Erie can't get into the tributaries, because the flow is too low. Quote
fish-fighting-illini Posted November 26, 2009 Author Posted November 26, 2009 I think the Illinois river has been at flood stage since around Christmas of last year. Quote
fish-fighting-illini Posted November 29, 2009 Author Posted November 29, 2009 The lake i grew up on, in West Texas, is at 15 percent. :-/ :-/ :-/ b 15%? so it is 85%empty? Man the fish ought to be easy to catch assuming you can get to them. We've been wet all summer. One stump that I fish is usually 3-5ft out of the water by July. It hasn't even sufaced this year, hard to find in fact is it is fairly deep. It hasn't rained in 3 days now(?) and I still have standing water in my back yard. We actually saw some sunshine last Wednesday Quote
