Members osuangler Posted February 2, 2011 Members Posted February 2, 2011 Hello everyone! I have lived here in NE Ok all my life, ad I hate to admit this, but I've never trout fished the Illinois. I know, I know, it's sad. I'd sure like to rectify that so if anyone wouldn't mind sharing some favorite spots and tactics, I'd be much obliged. Anywho, I spend a lot of time up at Roaring River in Missouri and can't always make the trip, so anywhere around here to get my fix would sure help. Thanks a bunch and GOD bless Jay Parker An angler is a man who spends rainy days sitting around on the muddy banks of rivers doing nothing because his wife won't let him do it at home. ~Author Unknown
Zach Bearden Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Pretty simple fishing. Buggers in Olive and Black as always. Some zebras and some pheasant tails in pretty small sizes work most of the time. Soft hackles will pick up midging fish most of the time. And whatever you like to fish for a dry. I like adams and Hares ear dries. Pretty much wherever you go to fish down here has the same water. A riffle every once in a great while with a lot of flat water. Not too deep in a lot of places.
