I just love it.

And want to thank Chris Barcelona for sharing the tale he and fiance Nora Ciciora are having with them.

Caught some nice white bass on the lakefront back in june.But haven't seen any since.Also got one in the chicago river.Could this be the source of a migration.

I would suspect you are right. I think that is the point that biologist Steve Robillard was making about the hot rivers might have been driving them out to the lake this summer.
