Hi All, Has anyone been fishing the Fox Chain of Lakes, in Illinois, the past week? Just wondering what the temps. and water clarity have been like so far. Last year the water was clear as a bell til Memorial Day and was'nt prepared for that. Any info you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

It's not as clear as last year. The northen lakes seem to be clearer than the southern lakes. Temps were about 58-60 over the weekend.

I was out on 4/24, the air temperatures were in the 70's by 11 am. Water got up to 63 by mid-day. Water clarity was the best I ever seen on the Northern lakes.
