I'm half river rat but don't get down your way at all.  Mostly on the Illinois River up near Morris and on Labor Day weekend over near Henry, Illinois.

Been on the Mississippi north and south of Lake Pepin.  We're river rats, but mainly on the Missouri.

We usually stay in the Marseilles to Starved Rock pool. We boat mainly on weekends and usually find that the locks are to busy to get through. If we go south through the Starved Rock lock we  have about a 60 mile pool to Peoria. We tend to go that way for there is less congestion.
