Location: Palatine, IL | Hey all- Posted a few weeks ago about upcoming trip to the chip was looking for info. Well we just got back and had a great time, stayed at Indian Trail, talked to John Detloff, but wouldn't give up any info.... hung out with Pat at the little red bar... .and fished a bunch.
Hired Dave Darozio and hit some action lakes, I got a nice 42" about 20lbs...missed one on a sucker. Buddy got a 35" and two nice sized pikes, no pic of pikes... Dave must not like those fish he just throw them back without even getting a pic, he didn't even want to let us take a picture of the 35". Other wise it was lots of fun and Dave kept us on our toes with his quick witted comments (i got a birds nest on the 5th cast, he said he got a birds nest once back in 1971 when his arm was in a sling). Except for the hurricane winds on Friday and Saturday, the chip was tough to fish, all we got were pikes and some bass. Hit a lot of points, bars and cribs, but depsite us going out on the lake blind, we will be back next year. We did learn a lot for our first time up there.
