WINDY CITY DADS x MUSKIE HUNTERS – SHELBYVILLE DAM MEETUP
Details
Alright dads—we’re teaming up with the Muskie Hunters and heading to Lake Shelbyville Dam & Spillway for what might be the BEST shore fishing around 👀me and Timmy are leaving at 2 am I think
📅 When: April 25th, 2026
⏰ Time: Sunrise to Sunset
🐟 The Mission:
Catch a MUSKIE (yeah… that fish 😤)
💥 Why this spot?
- Spillway current pushes baitfish through
- Big predators stack up
- Shore fishing = legit chance at a monster
👨👧👦 Who’s invited?
Everyone — dads, kids, friends
(No boat? Perfect. Most fishing is from shore along the Kaskaskia River)
🌭 Food & Hangout:
- Cookout setup under the pavilion
- West side of the river (same as last year)
- Chill, fish, eat, repeat
💲 Cost: Free
(Maybe bring something for the cookout if you can)
⚠️ Heads up:
Rocks are SUPER slippery — bring good shoes 👟
🏨 Staying overnight?
Only a few hotels nearby—book early if you’re crashing.
