    Lol that paddle breaking was hilarious. I know it sucked for u but made me laugh! Me and my buddies fish the desplaines river in lake and cook county mostly for pike. Its great fun in a yak

      Sorry I didnt respond sooner, your comment went to spam. The paddle snap did suck at the time haha, but was funny to watch when I got home. You guys get any size up there?

      Biggest for me has been 35" but my buddies who have fished it longer have gotten 40s . No musky (yet) but there are days well catch 40 pike. My buddy will toss the spinners with paddle tails and buzz baits and i follow up with chatter baits with craw/critter trailers and manns minus cranks. Whats encouraging is that alot of the big ones have giant bite marks on them, ecspecially from this one stretch which means there are 40+ in there or some musky. Since these bite marks are on 30+ northern! We get good bass too but those are holes below the sewer drains and spillways. Im sure its the same deal farther south. Chi-townschwagz on fishbrain most of those pike are off the DP they have the locations that are pretty close to actual spots!

    Where did you launch? I'm looking to hit up the DesPLaines (I mostly fish the Fox in my kayak), so I don't know where to put in to stay out of dangerous water/major current. Thank you!!!

    • @ThatsitWeregoinfishin
      @ThatsitWeregoinfishin  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Send me an email ***** and ill send you the spot. I went out on a day that wasn't windy and we didn't have a lot of rain the previous days, so it wasn't bad. We actually fished the fox yesterday and I think we're heading back Saturday morning to try again! Any good spots over there?

    Paddling wise do you go fast easily? Or is it hard to paddle fast with that yak?

    • @ThatsitWeregoinfishin
      @ThatsitWeregoinfishin  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I can get up to speed pretty easy on this kayak! This is the only one I've been on though, so I can't really compare it to anything else.

    I want to bouy kayak, but where I can use it in some swimming area illinois or wisconsin?

    Never caught one smallie before, is it true they are strong fighters for their size?

  • @rickyreed3208

    Can any tell me if I put in the des plains river in libertyville are there northern pike n bass in that area

    • @ThatsitWeregoinfishin
      @ThatsitWeregoinfishin  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I've never put in up there, but I've heard the pike bite is pretty good up north!

    • @danreder8985
      @danreder8985 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes there are plenty. Independence grove is a good spot for both if you dont have a kayak otherwise you need a kayak for the northern part of river!

    • @vaughnmild4467
      @vaughnmild4467 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Its brutal from the shore (lots of deadfalls and bolders). But if you're floating around like my man here or have some waiters? You'll run into Pike & Largemouth all day.

    • @ThatsitWeregoinfishin

  • @jonashamrah2428
    @jonashamrah2428 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You and I need to get together and fish the river. Sucks that I don't have a yak though. Let me know if you're interested?

    • @ThatsitWeregoinfishin
      @ThatsitWeregoinfishin  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      If I get some waders I'm down. There's too much high grass and snakes at the spot from this video

    • @jonashamrah2428
      @jonashamrah2428 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thats it. We're goin fishin! I need to get some waders too! Like you said a lot of snakes and high grass. Email me your contact info and let's work a plan out. As I said before you and I fish a lot of the same spots.
