RE: Alright you Illinois boys......
Doesn't surprise me that Jefferson (my home county) is in the top 5.....no comment . Now I'm stuck way the hell up here in Henry county (near Peoria) but I am going home this weekend and hopefully I'll be able to take vacation the full or half of the 2nd week in Nov.

According to a magazine article that I read last year, Pike was #1 for both P&Y and B&C. The counties that I hunt in, Lake and McHenry, were #2 and #3 for P&Y. McHenry was also #3 for B&C. Quality, not quantity.

I hate those lists. If you live in those counties listed, and that top 10 list comes out in a magazine, there is a rush of people trying to move in on ya.(had to get that out of my system).
good list, but There are some really small counties that don't get counted that produce good ones every year.
