The next Gary Borger TU meeting is set to take place at 7:00 pm on Thursday February 8th at the First United Methodist Church located at 600 Deerfield Road Deerfield, IL. Our guest speakers that night will be Mike Allen and Kurt Nelson owners and guides for Midwest Angling Company (www.midwestwaters.com​). The title of their presentation that night will be "Illinois Native Warm Water Opportunities".

Mike and Kurt both grew up fishing the waters of the western suburbs and have been active in the fly fishing community for several years.  Both are involved with two fishing tournaments in the Chicagoland area; The Golden Bones Tournament and the Bronzback Cub Invitational.  Their home waters are the Rock, Illinois, Fox, Kankakee, Des Plains and DuPage Rivers.  They target a number of species in these watersheds including Smallmouth, Carp, Gar, Pike and the ever elusive Musky.
