What: FISHING!!
When: March 17,18, and 19. (first weekend of spring break, 17th is a Fri.)
Who: Fighting Illini Bass Club members
Where: My family's property 20 miles west of Peoria. (about 2 hours from here). 500 acres with two ~30 acre lakes, 2 ~7 acre lakes and a 10-12 ish acre lake.
This is the official invite to all club members to come enjoy some fishing out at the "property" where 10lbers have been seen and 6-7 lb fish are not uncommon!
So this is in less than two weeks, and I was out there this weekend and we had to bust through inch to 2 inch ice to get to parts of the lake and also an inch of snow fell just today, but it gone now, anyway, my point is, it's still cold.... so.......... be prepared!! Who knows it may warm up!
The plan would be to head over there Friday afternoon, all depending on when everyone that wants to go is done with class and can get away.
We have a military wall tent that is about 35X20 feet that we will set up, and that i plan to sleep in with a propane heater. There is plenty of room for those who wish to "rough it" or the closet hotel is....uh shoot i don't know. Anyway, breakfasts will be served, lunches as well (for small price), and we will eat out for dinners. My point is, there is camping involved....so....be prepared! If you want to sleep in the tent i suggest a cot if you can get one, or a blow up mattress or any form of good insulation that you can sleep atop. If you choose to sleep in a car, hehehehehe, enjoy!! But there is plenty of room!
Boats welcome, and i can guarantee a boat for everyone!
PM me on the forum if you plan to attend, and i will send you a link to receive detailed directions, also let me know when you can leave Friday, and if you plan to bring a boat, and ask any questions beneficial to all on the thread!!
