Howdy folks! I just found out today that I’ll be moving to Scott AFB in March. I’m coming from Omaha, Nebraska so it’s not like I’m moving all that far in the grand scheme of things.
I was curious about how the fishing is around there. I’m well aware that a lot of guys go down to fish LOZ or other Missouri lakes but I was more interested in the southern IL lakes. Are any of them any good? Do any of them freeze hard enough for ice fishing? Because I’m not going to lie, it would be pretty nice to be somewhere that doesn’t really get any hard water anymore.
Bonus side question, what’s the deer hunting like out there. I’m a bow hunter and will be limited to public land.
