Weather was nice slight wind temps in the 50's
water was down a lot form the last time I was there
fished for an hour 4 to 5

Fished a white spinner bait..nada..switched up to the red and white 3rd cast
Got this guy. The fish was beat up with sores all over :shock:

 

[Little Goose]

Maybe it's the anxious yotes going after them...these days you never know

 

[BassCaster]

brings up a good point. Has ayone run into any wild youtes/dogs while fishing the river alone :shock:

I think i'll bring a knife/length of chain or some type of defense from now on :roll:

 

[DPRFisherman]

yes i encountered to wild dogs and a coyote today while fishing the river

 

[BassCaster]

what did you do? I was attacked as a kid by a dog ...still scared shitless when i see a stray dog

 

[Little Goose]

I've been fishing the DPR for 8 years seen a few yotes, wounded deer, bucketheads and bums. I had to call the police a few times on some gangbangers smoking under the bridge. Don't let yotes scare yea.

 

[Culprit]

It`s probably close to thier breeding season and if ur too close to the den they may attack.
Be carefull in the spooky woods
I noticed the water level went down some today too.

 

[DPRFisherman]

ahh they aint gunna attack a 170 pound kid but i have seen some realy big ones i saw 2 of them

 

[Little Goose]

Yotes will attack anything if you make an attempt at them.Don't test them because when there's 3 or 4 on one your idea will change fast.

Yeahh you have to watch yourself specially if you decide to sneak in by Irving and River Rd. One time i was working an all black spinnerbait at 9:00 pm in the summer and I seen some really weird people hanging out. Gothic people with their faces painted eating a pizzas on the rocks.

Nice Mike! There are Coyotes that are in the Park Ridge forest preserves. When I was a kid I used to see packs of them really early in the morning. They looked really scrappy though and were way more scared of me than I was of them.
