Awesome trip! The best section of the upper Illinois River is in Arkansas. It’s way more clear and a lot less people and is above a dam on the border.

Thank You! It was a lot of fun! Yea, I haven’t fished the upper section in along time. I’ll have to make a trip up there!

Agree! I don’t even see anyone on my stretch west of Fayetteville on 4th of July or Labor Day. Totally private.

Mind sharing where your put in spot was located? Thanks!👍🏻

Looks like a great trip! Some nice smallies!

Thank You! Appreciate the kind words and support!

I'm from Tulsa and wade fish Baron Fork alot, but have really wanted to float and camp the Upper Illinois. I've been on a day trip with Donavon Clary for white bass, so I see all his posts of the Illinois on facebook. Where did you start and end your trip, and also curious about arranging for pickup/transport?

Cool! Donovan is a great guide! We had a group of people and multiple vehicles, so we self shuttled. DM me on instagram and I can give you more specifics.
