Fox Chain - April 24, 2021 — Libertyville Fishing Club

We held our 7th outing of 2021 on the Fox Chain on April 24. Eight guys fished on a beautiful day with mixed results. We scored 85 points on 1 smallmouth, 12 walleyes (including Dave Busscher’s 24-incher which took the big fish prize), 1 northern pike (Mike Hall's 33-incher) and 1 channel catfish. Several large drum were also caught. Although they fight hard, they don’t count for points.

One of the boats found fish early in 2-3 fow and caught a lot of fish in the first two hours of the outing. The other boats didn't do very well fishing other spots on the Chain. Mike Hall was pre-fishing with his tournament partner and the next day they scored 3rd out of 40 boats. Congratulations Mike!

Our next outing is Lake Michigan on May 8.
