RE: Good place for gar in Illinois?
i still do but i leave there and thats the closest place for me to shoot #,s in the past 3 week we have taken 7 gar that was larger then 9#,s but nothing like hers they are in there and they are bigger but being at the right place at the right time is key and then even if u are there at the right time then u gotta ready as johnny is aware they come upand go down very quick and its tough at times
but they do get big and u can shoot in that slough thats the story they all are staying with now (although the slough is still part of a recreation area) o well they make up laws as they go but the local bait shop is mad to

If any one is interested the head honcho at Carlyle corp of engineers is a - Bob Wilkins at 618-929-5040. Give him a polite call and let him know how we feel. No harm no foul
