| I live in Roscoe, IL. It is 15 minutes north of Rockford and 5-10 minutes from the Wisconsin border.
I fish many different places but we own a place on High Lake in Boulder Junction. So this is the place we fish the most. However, we hit the Madison Chain a lot, the "Chip", and occasionally Namekagon.
Our boat is a Ranger R72 with a 115hp Evinrude, Lowrance fish finders but looking to advance them, Minn Kota Autopilot trolling motor, and our 98' Jeep Grand Cherokee pulls it.

| Welp, I live in the beautiful Northwoods of Wisconsin on Butternut Lake.
I have a saying for the species I fish for. "If it's got fins, it's in trouble!" But I primarily set the hook on Muskies and Bass, both Smallies and Largemouth.
Lakes I fish are endless, but Butternut, Flambeau River, Schnurrs, Pike/Round Chain and the infamous Yukabutski Lake.
My boat is an older 16' Smokercraft with a 40hp Merc. CAN ANYONE GUESS WHICH RODS I USE?!?!?
The boat is pulled with my 2000 Victory Red Blazer.

| I live in Cudahy, WI which is a southern suburb of Milwaukee.
I fish Pewaukee occasionally, but it's usually for bass instead of skies.
I travel to Vilas County and fish 5 lakes in the Phelps area. I also stop by Pelican and Mohawksin. This year I'm taking 2 weeks of vacation on Cass Lake and will probably keep on doing that yearly.
I fish out of a Ranger Cherokee with a 75 Mariner tiller.

| I live in Huber Heights, Ohio which is about 1 mile from the intersection of I-70 and I-75. I was a diehard bassman until a friend took me to Cave Run to bass fish last march. There was just something about a 4 foot fish following your bait back to the boat. Yes, I did catch the Muskie bug. My boat is a 1999 Sprint 19' bassboat with a 200 Merc. I have only fished Cave Run and made about a dozen trips last year.

| Dare I even say it,thats right western new jersey,right along the delaware river.I fish mostly northern jersey for the big boys ,and some of the smaller lakes around here for numbers.I fish out of a 98 16ft tracker that is very under powered. But I get there sooner or later and do my fair share.The way I look at it, its better then fishing from shore.I pull my rig with a beat up toyota t100 4x4 and it to is under powered ,but at least i don't get stuck. Remember,it doesnt matter how you get there or how long it takes ,just do it.[:sun:]
good hunting to all[;)]
