sport, glad to hear you had a good trip, I traveled from Chi-town to the Fish-In this year and it was a real eye-opener. Not sure if you've tried it yet, but if you get a chance this spring (it seems a long way off), make sure to hit Lake Arlington with some of your lightweight tackle, for some of the best public water bluegill fishing in the North suburbs... those pre-spawn male bluegills have some great color as well, and as a catch and release fishery, you'll get plenty of decent sized ones.
