2012 Fishing Destinations

I plan to start using Google Maps to approximate the number of miles of river I fish.
My goal for 2012 is about 80 distinct miles of paddling and wading (some wades will be repeated) broken down something like the following:

Illinois:

Salt Fork 22 miles
North Fork 3 miles
Middle Fork 4 miles
Vermilion (near Danville) 5 miles
North Vermilion (near Pontiac) 4 miles
Saline Branch 6 miles
Sugar Creek (near Lincoln) 4 miles
Prairie Creek (near New Holland) 2 miles
Salt Creek (above Clinton Lake) 2 miles
Salt Creek (below Clinton Lake near Lincoln) 2 miles
Stony Creek 1 mile
Jordan Creek 1 mile
Kankakee River 5 miles

Indiana

Wabash 3 miles
Big Pine 3 miles
Coal Creek 3 miles
Sugar Creek 5 miles

Wisconsin

Wisconsin River (below Prairie du Sac dam) 5 miles

That's 80 miles of streams spread across 18 streams and 3 states. I'll be charting the progress.

If you want to add Colorado to the list, Jeff, you'll always be welcome. I'm starting to find my way around here.
