I have made the trip a few times from central Illinois to Millwood. Have caught some great crappie there. Also enjoy the outstanding scenery. Each time there I have seen an alligator or two. I have been following the Crappie.com chatter and it sounds like you have had as bad of a winter as everyone else. My question is - - - does anyone know if this has been a severe enough winter to do in the resident gators on the lake? I hope not - - - it is kinda nice to see them swimming there.
