So I'm gonna be taking my dad to busse soon. We both got our licenses last week and I've yet to fish in Illinois after fishing daily in MN during college. Are there any good areas to go away from the majority of people? We'll be casting from shore, so nothing that involves boats. (How much are rentals anyway?) Ill be fishing for bass and he'll be trying to catch a cold, fish flee from him even in Hayward, Wisconsin where anyone can catch a fish.
