Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

If you love bluegill and you are in the Northern Illinois, Southern Wisconsin, Western Indiana areas - you should come and visit our league fishing events.

We run regular-guy fishing events on the banks of local public lakes. We have discount bait available and our league costs just $20 annual.

You can find photos of our recent events here: Chicago Fishing League Events

Information and schedule for upcoming events is located on the site as well.

Our next event tomorrow is our annual Veterans giving back event - where our League members help out at the Paralyzed Veterans Annual Fishing Derby in Elk Grove Village, IL.

Then, in the afternoon, we hit a new catch-and-release only lake in Des Plaines, IL.  A double-header event. For the third period tomorrow, we will head indoors to find some ice. The Blackhawks try to make it 2-0 in the Stanley Cup Quest - a LONG, but awesome day Saturday!!!

Even if you miss out on our events- you can join the club  + league anytime of the year. It is a whole lot of fun and as stated - you can pick up some discounted spikes! 500 for $6, a club tradition.

Call if you are interested - 630.235.2162 and we can have a chat about catching a whole bunch of fish right around the Chicago suburbs.
