Chicago Fishing Club events feature short demonstrations with fishing located around Chicago's inland waters. Members can attend demonstrations and fish timed 4-hour sessions at various DuPage & Cook County park district and forest preserve lakes. Afterwards, we compare what we caught and discuss fishing. New anglers and experienced fishermen will love the :35 minute sessions prior to (and/or after) the events where a setup, rig and strategy is discussed to improve your fishing. League fishing, lessons and private lessons are the best way to learn how to catch a lot of fish and big fish within :30 minutes of Chicago!
