FredFish I took up fishing summer of 19 , i have much to learn which is why I am here ... Bass fishing in Southern Illinois has been easy for me especially on my home lake . I struggle with Crappie except March and April .... the app Fish Angler has been godsend for me . The accuracy for recommended ideal fish times has really upped my game. My goal is to winter near Everglades City FL Feb / Mar starting in a few years. I’m visiting this spring for a week to see if I can find a campsite for a fifth wheel . It is the Pipe dream after working 40 years as a school architect.
