As I mentioned in another post Tim (Yukon_Cowboy) and I went down to Montrose harbor this morning to meet Capt Bill for for info on power lining. Due to Car problems Capt Bill was no able to make it down. We did however meet a very nice man named John from Des plaines who was willing to show us his set up and explain how every thing worked. Here are a few photos that I took to show his set up.

I would like to thank John for showing us the ropes today and look forward to him joining the Chitown Angler site.

Thanks Bill, John was very good at explaining everything to us. We did throw lures for a couple of hours with no results.
