Welcome to Matt Bach's Fishing Blog, here at www.ibebach.com!  After nearly thirty years of casting lines, I figured it was finally time to devote my passion into an online blog. Here, you will be able to follow my daily journeys, look back at all those fish reeled in over the years, and if your lucky maybe learn some of my secrets.  Living my whole life in the Northwest Suburbs of Illinois, I primarily find myself fishing for Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Channel Catfish in local Ponds, Lakes, and Rivers. 

Last season was extremely sucessful, and I am excited to build off that in the new year.  Follow me as I plan to document, photograph and video tape this years journey.  February 26th, 2012 officially marked the start of my eight month long season where I have set a personal goal to catch 500 Game Fish.

Thanks again for swinging by, I can't wait to get out there and wet some lines!
