    I知 on the board in Illinois!!!

    I posted on here a little over a week ago (new to the state) asking about a decent lake to do a little fishing. I ended up going to Crab Orchard and the trip did not go well at all. However, my next outing, I went to the Scott AFB pond and managed to catch a good one almost as soon as I got there. This is the video from that trip.

    Full disclosure, I have made a lot of videos but very few shore fishing videos. I値l admit that filming a day in the boat just seems a lot easier than doing the same while fishing on the bank.

    By the way, I値l be making more videos as well, assuming I ever figure out how to catch a bass in this state that is in a lake instead of a pond. If you guys don稚 mind, I planned to post them here too.

    You caught a good one for sure. Looked like a great day. I would watch for poison ivy walking the pond banks with flip flops.
