I have been fishing Willow Slough with Van about 7 times over the past 2 years. Last week I went to the front of the boat to drop the anchor and asked Van how did that frog get into the boat. He said he brought the plastic frog for bass. This plastic frog was laying on the bow, just below the rubber frog bow about 12 inches was a the live frog. This was the 1st time a plastic frog and a live frog has been in the boat.
The South End provides useful resources and discussion forums for those that fish The South End of Lake Michigan for Salmon, Steelhead, Perch, and Bass as well as elsewhere in the Region and Chicago area.
