From the Wisconsin border to the Illinois River, some of the best and easily accessible fishing in the Chicago area.

Ken, when you're out tromping around the woods finding rotten deer heads, philosophizing and catching fish, you ever find yourself being the main meal for ticks? Just curious.

I almost went up that way Sam. Decided not to burn the gas just for fish. I enjoy watching others casting out into the river when the fish are sitting less than a foot from the wall most of the time. That's a nice one.

Paul, like poison ivy, I seem to be immune to ticks. All the time spent in the woods out in Virginia, I recall getting two. Everyone else would get covered in them.

My wife claims I had one a couple of years ago here in Illinois, didn't draw blood so I don't remember it.

Once walked around Mazonia lakes with a friend. He went home with three. Nada for me.

I also don't get sick much. Never have. I was told a long time ago I have something in my blood that the doctors really like. Wanted me giving blood all the time. They told me what it was at the time, but I no longer remember.

I think it's just garlic.
