Location: chicago | Last night was the start of the season however, I decided to cast 4 and 6 inch Grandmas. I caught 3 northern by the time the sun went down. I bet that I catch a musky by the end of the smelt run in Chicago!!! |

Location: Home of the 2016 World Series Champion Cubs | So what your saying is you caught three more pike than smelt, right????
Havent caught a northern, or muskie for that matter, at Montrose. I have stuck a couple of northern at Belmont and Diversey harbors though. I was always puzzled why never at Montrose. Good to hear.
Do you want some company this weekend? Don't even know where my smelt gear is any more. I do plan on trolling for some coho this weekend as well. |
