First of all thanks everyone for the nice welcome. My name is JD. I live in Southern Illinois. Third cornfield on the left in Wayne County. I mostly fish farm ponds and any spots that require a backpack, compass, and secret handshake to access. I love fishing for bluegill and crappie. Although can't forget about catfish. Because without catfish I wouldn't have the user name that I have. I've spent more time tangled up in the brush along the banks of Rend Lake. Trying to catch catfish. Than actually catching any.
