  Spoke too soon. Found a 22 incher yesterday. Getting hard to get at the deep holes even with wader boots

  Hi Mike. Unfortunately, the removal of dams on the stretch in southern Lake county may have changed the river a little bit. Not much luck this year yet. You might ...more want to try some stretches in northern Cook. Maybe by Allgauers or the nature center just south of there? good luck!
