Thread: It's been 25 years since I fished IL!!!

Back in the 1980 - 1995 period I lived in Cape Girardeau and I fished So. IL heavily, Rend, Kinkaid, Egypt, Cedar, Devil's Kitchen, and yes, even Horseshoe and the Ohio out of Golconda.

I am going to take a week and go back to some of those old places I loved back then, but I need some help. I am 73, do I need a out of State permit? Are there any special rules that I need to know about for my boat. Battery boxes (even if they are strapped down and in a covered compartment) for example? Can you troll? How many rods, etc?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.
