I'd wager that $20 that those aren't Indiana fish...

You'd be right bigbear, but from my house in Highland, they were caught closer to home than if I drove to MC. You guys need to get past the money. The $20 bill would get you closer to figuring out my little riddle than $50 would. I did some homework, took a short drive and a risk and tried a new spot and had a good night.

Good to know! I'm in Schererville so it would be a closer drive for me then as well.

Remembering I am a southerner and not familiar with all there is about the south end of the lake I was wondering about it too. I looked at a 20 dollar bill and saw the picture of Andrew Jackson. The thought of something Jackson was where you were. But then the stonewall thing got into my mind. T J "Stonewall" Jackson was a confederate general. Same last name but were relevant in two very different places in time. The back of the bill has a picture of the Whitehouse on it so again another dead end for me. I guess it is going to take a trip to the Bat Cave to solve this riddle. Move over Frank Gorshin.

Way to go Steelie Don. Jackson Park is a harbor on the south side of Chicago. It's On South Shore drive, adjacent to South Shore country club. It's big park with two lagoons that connect to the lake and a nice long pier, and plenty of parking for $2 an hour. The surrounding neighborhood is probably not the safest and there are definitely some different characters milling around the park, but the cops are present and visible.

Hey south shore I fish that harbor on most years only went twice this year.... I always wondered how cal park would be for the fall run... anyone ever fish the mouth of the river?

I don't know what harbors IL plants with their fish. Jackson? Perhaps.....

Still, could make a good story for Great Lakes Angler (or Guns and Ammo) "BEST GUNS TO CARRY WHILE NIGHT FISHING CHI-TOWN KINGS."

I will need some volunteers to do the on-the-ground research. I'm not going there. Any takers?

"Chi-Town Kings" that even sounds gang related or the name of a good swing band.

You can't carry a gun in Chicago. That's why it's so peaceful over there.

I've fished over there for years never been bothered all fisherman I've seen fishing there have been pretty friendly I've been there since I was about 14
