Grew up in Greenwood (folks and brother still live there) and they

report the smallie fishing north of town in the White River can be
pretty good.


I fished it a few times when I first came to town, I'm not into the
smallmouth, probably because I really don't cast streamers very well (when I
lived near Chicago the Fox river had some prolific caddis hatches and I did
have fun catching them on EHC's.) I thought Mr. Church was going to arrange
a float trip this Spring but I guess his travel schedule intervened.

Do you ever come visit? If so let me know, you can give me smallie lessons.

I don't get back much and when I do it's usually in Nov so we go
pheasant hunting but I'll certainly keep it in mind.


I've been trying to scout places to do that since I've been here. I thought
I had some places set but I had my wallet stolen from my car and never
bothered to replace the hunting license so last year was a wash.


It's certainly not as easy as it was growing up there. My brother has
some connections but we've often ended up driving over to Illinois to
a preserve.

If you guys want to spend another day driving, I can get you into some
wild birds. If this damn rain would let up, we should have a good year
for pheasants again.

Kevin,
If you're volunteering I'll certainly be in touch next time out to see
the folks in season with the pup. I assume we're talking S Iowa?

Hah! You wish! I said a day driving, not a couple hours. I live in
central North Dakota.

Yep, 17 hours and 1100 miles according to Mapquest from Greenwood to
Minot (the only place I've been in ND) so it's even a long day!

I spent about 25 years in Ohio and have never been to Dayton.

As I was hitting the post-a-reply button, I had second thoughts
that maybe I did go there once, but now I'm pretty sure it was
Toledo, and that was bad enough! :-)

Jon.
PS: That's Toledo, Ohio, not the other one...

We used to play the University of Dayton in college hockey. I don't
remember anything about the town, except that we usually got our asses
kicked.

Play nice while I'm gone.

Sure you don't want to join me in Dayton???


Frank, you must've been a bad boy in a former life. BTW, has anyone

Not yet, but I've got a good friend in Dayton. I hope to make it there to
see him some time.

I never got there this year but I think I have access to a good sized farm
near Ottawa Illinois, but I have been doing a contract job in Brazil IN, the
guy I work for is a local boy and I noticed that unlike the farms around
Indy, the crops are harvested with quite a bit of remaining stuble. He tells
me there are wild pheasants in the area and he can get me access to some of
the farms. Lastly there is an active Pheasants Unlimited chapter which I
keep meaning to attend. So by November there might be a few options open if
you come.

If nothing else, I have a distant relative who owns a farm in Iowa and
raises dogs raised for upland hunting, it's about 7 - 8 hours from where I
live which is about 4 miles east of Greenwood.
