stinkbait420 & Tom,
K3 is a pretty river. I am looking forward to learning it. I live about equal distance from the Fox and the K3. I learned to fish rivers on the Fox and know it and generally do well. I guess I have gotton pretty comfortable with it and just keep going back to that which I am familiar with.
Business brings me down 102 to Kankakee about as often I want. As you seen from the pictures I have been exploring Rock Creek and I would like to plan a return trip. I'd be happy to fish the K3 more and as far as a K3 fishing partner goes stinkbait - I'd be happy to hit the river with you (give me an e-mail). I don't know the river yet though.
Tom, I agree with treating the river respectfully. When I came up from my trip to Rock Creek, my back was sore, I was a little tired and had to hurry home because I stayed longer than I should have. While in that frame of mind a lady walking her dog asked me "are you a naturalist?" She must have seen me taking pictures of Rocks (LOL). I thought about it for a moment and said "I never thought of it that way; but, I guess I am a naturalist."
What I do know is that when I got home I felt very relaxed and peaceful. I didn't catch a fish and the fishing was still great.
