| Good luck John, you may want to put a hex on Randy Carroll before the start of the season though.

| John, old buddy. I wish I could do something about the weather. If so I wouldn't be punching these keys. (LOL) It should be an intresting fall. The Saugers are starting to move up now. Been catching them for the past several weeks nothing big but fun. Coming on 3-way cranks, lead core and floaters. Going back up tomorrow. Starting to see a lot more walleye show up. The DNR have been stocking them in the Kankakee for the past several years and i think they are coming down stream, Ottawa is better but hopefully in the next 2-3 years we should see more and more in the Peoria pool. I think Mr. October (Randy Carroll) might get some addtional pressure this year a lot of the guys have been playing with lead core all year.
Should be fun.
Good Luck Bob |

Location: Chicago IL. | I got MR. Carroll`s number. He let the cat out of the bag trolling in the same spots we were last fall. You cant help but learn from watching him spank fish and you puke out. It looks like the water will be normal. Looking foward to it.
