Did any of you ever hunt the Illinois Bottom's already. A buddy of mine told me that he heard someone was ther and saw a much as 4 to 6 Pope & Young bucks a night. I'm looking for information to hunt there. Or at least check it out once.
Which Bottoms? On what river? We've seen numerous big bucks in the Sangamon River bottoms around Springfield and Riverton that would make book. Anyway not sure what bottoms you mean.
Matt- The ground I'm talking iabout is private. The closest River bottoms that are open to the public I think would be Ray Norbut (spelling) over on the Illinois River by Grigsville and Florence. Keep in mind that I'm talking about closest to me. Their might be something closer but I can't remember. I suffer from some-timers disease, sometimes I remember somtimes I don't.
