Great rundown of the stuff and why you are using what you are using. For your walk around setups.

[@FishingWithZach]

[@allonnayutzy4424]

Great video babe!!!

[@danthompson1467]

Great as always 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@EngineeringHooksets]

Thanks for watching, Dan! Idk if you noticed, but the first 2 bridges were your home river.

[@BackroadsAngling]

Good production quality on these videos! Nice spotted bass! The EFH lures really catch!

[@EngineeringHooksets]

Thanks, man!

[@PeelingLine]

Looked like a great day to be out even if the fish weren't cooperating the best. Nice couple fish though. Are you back in IL or just visiting? 👍

[@EngineeringHooksets]

We were just visiting. I've been trying to get back again for a kayak float but IL has been getting rain every weekend for the past month

[@PeelingLine]

@@EngineeringHooksets That's not a bad thing for them. Sucks when you're traveling though.

[@BananasacOutdoors]

Awesome video, those bass at the end were real cool looking. Cool you came back up to fish Illinois still. Keep up the great work

[@EngineeringHooksets]

Thanks for watching, man! I love fishing in Illinois. Midwest rivers have a completely different feel compared to southern rivers. I like the midwest's better.

[@DpuckFishingandOutdoors]

I had a slow early spring as well, outside of trout. At least you found a place to land smallies, and maybe spotted bass.

[@EngineeringHooksets]

Found a place in IL, 7 hours from where I live 😂

Any good spots for fishing around Champaign?

[@EngineeringHooksets]

I lived in Champaign for 5 years during college, it's not a great fishing area, unfortunately. The only rivers that close are the Sangamon (River Bend Forest Preserve) and the Salt Fork Vermilion (Homer lake). Neither are great, but they have fish. When I lived there most of fishing was over an hour drive away

[@aidenpan4197]

@@EngineeringHooksets Do you recommend Clinton Lake? 30min drive away but we beginners don't know where to fish since the lake was big

[@EngineeringHooksets]

@aidenpan4197 Yes, if fishing lakes is your thing Clinton lake is good! But, it does get pretty busy. For bank fishing, I'd recommend either the 14 or 48 bridge. Both are good. Look at Google maps if you're unsure where those are.
