" Southern Illinois Fishing is a treasure chest waiting to be opened."-- Mike Roux , owner, Mike Roux Outdoor Enterprises "Colby Simms shines as a masterful storyteller whose journeys across diverse terrains have honed his ability to craft narratives that are both riveting and enlightening."-- Mark Lassagne , publisher, Bass Angler Magazine "Tapping into his deep expertise from years of fishing around the world, Simms opens up the throttle on tactics and gear that bring in big southern Illinois fish all year round. Engaging and exciting, this book shows us how a successful day of fishing is more than just catching fish--it's about connecting with family and friends, being willing to learn every day, and staying curious about the natural world waiting for us outside."-- James Garvey , director, Center for Fisheries, Aquaculture, and Aquatic Sciences, Southern Illinois University "This book will not only entice you to learn how to fish--it also promotes the peacefulness, solitude, and many benefits of being in nature and sharing the outdoors with those you love."-- Larry Ladowski , journalist, MidWest Outdoors

Synopsis
The ultimate resource for sport fishing in southern Illinois Southern Illinois's many waterways teem with an incredible variety of fish species, and award-winning fisherman and journalist Colby Simms knows exactly where and how to catch them all. Within these pages, Simms shares the secrets he's gleaned from years of hard-won experience: colossal catfish dominate the Mississippi River; monstrous muskies rule over Kinkaid Lake. Rend gives up record crappie and bowfin, while Crab Orchard produces excellent largemouth bass fishing and Cedar offers huge striped bass. Whether you're powerboating a large lake or paddling an out-of-the-way oxbow, the region presents countless opportunities for different styles of fishing. Wondering which bait and tackle will produce the best results, or how seasonal weather affects fish migration patterns? Simms has already conferred with fellow fishing pros as well as biologists, outdoor sports media figures, and other experts to bring you the most current, site-specific information possible. From fishing fundamentals to the most advanced, cutting-edge techniques, he presents a battle plan for attacking the waters, big and small, of the lower Prairie State, which will benefit all anglers--from beginners to seasoned tournament competitors. Nestled between the critical information and detailed instructions, you'll find stories from Simms and additional professional anglers, state fisheries staff, recreational fishers, and others. You'll find encouragement and motivation to put away life's modern distractions and get back to nature. Southern Illinois Fishing brims with enthusiasm, humor, and heart, and is sure to educate and inspire readers to lose themselves in the ancient tradition and modern sport of fishing., A comprehensive resource for all anglers living in or traveling to southern Illinois, Southern Illinois Fishing will educate and inspire novice and veteran anglers alike. Colby Simms provides readers with highly detailed information about the sport of fishing in southern Illinois and encourages readers to get out there and fish.

- v***4 (121)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchasePurchased 5 car Madison rail car set at auction. Received package well wrapped and in original box. Cars themselves are in excellent condition and mostly as described, although I believe they have seen some track time. That being said, seller offers returns so I'm confident seller was told these cars were new by whomever he got them from. The purchase price was excellent so when averaged with a higher than normal shipping fee it turned out to be an overall good deal.

The kit arrived safely, very carefully packaged in brand new materials. It was delivered just as it appeared in listing and photos. It was listed as used but really new in an open box complete with the decals and instructions. The kit also included extras, an Edward Models PE detail set and Check Master's engine kit.
