Emiquon Bass Fishing:

Emiquon Preserve isn't your typical public water.  It takes extra work to get a boat set up, but I promise it will pay off huge.  
To fish Emiquon you must get a free permit from Dixon Mounds Office.  Your boat cannot have a gas motor on it.  That being said, multiple good batteries and a solid trolling motor or two is a must.  Pay attention to the maps and where fishing is allowed.  Also, bank fishing is not allowed. The water is big for just a trolling motor but so are the bass.  Today in poor weather conditions and high winds we were able to boat over 50 fish.   So get out there because this is some of the best public bass fishing offered in Central Illinois
