Crooked Lake

Fish?  The only things that are in this lake are dirt, duck waste and maybe a tire :P  About the most disgusting body of water I ever saw in my life....What fish are in the lake?...Located in the Lakes region of Northern Illnois, Crooked Lake is truely one of the hidden gems of Lake County. A 130 acre lake perfect for water skiing, fishing and simply enjoying a day on the water. This lake is exclusively enjoyed by the 3 surrounding homeowner communites of Sedgewood Cove, the West Shores and Munn Rd as there are no public launch facilities....

Root River
17 miles away
Very fun stretch of river, if there is water.  The root is best paddled the day after a rainfall.  Check the reports, it is not worth your time if the water is below 250cfs.  That is the absolute minimum.  There are 2 fun waves to surf, 3 in very high water.  Bring playboats, this stretch of whitewater is only about 500 yards.  Both waves have pretty good washout, there is a small hole on the lower wave, but not bad....
