Default RE: looking for hunting buddies in il

Beag,

You cant check out Channel Lakes State park out by Fox lake, IL about 35 minute drive on a good day. They have hunting during the month of November. Mondays and Tuesdays are archery deer. And starting Wednesday it is pheasant hunt. Im not sure if it goes to Sunday. I dont hunt there due to being a non resident now and deer licenses are $400 plus. I mostly hunt in Wi.
Directions: From Great Lakes take Route 137 west to route 41 and turn right. Take route 41 about 8 miles to route 173 and turn left west. Take route 173 through Antioch, IL until you reach Wilmot rd. (You will see thelens gravel pit on the left then Kc's cabin bar at the corner of wilmot and 173). Turn left on Wilmot and go south about 2 1/2 miles and you will see the entrance to the park.
You can get all the info you need at the shack or they can direct you to the office which is onsite. While you are there get a map and check out the place. Good hunting.
