When I think of Leisure Lakes I think of a great place to fish for good size catfish. The price you pay to use the lake is well worth it. Last year I caught three keepers that were 8 inches long. As I remember you can pay for either day of night fishing, but when I went I fished during the day. There is ample shade from trees and awnings. Of course the only problem with trees that provide shade is there is a potential problem with snagging your line against a tree limb. Overall though I would highly suggest fishing at Leisure Lakes in Springfield. There are two lakes you can fish in and you can drive your vehicle right up to the lakes. My Mom even drove her large RV through their road that wraps around the lakes. So go ahead and take the troops. You will have a better chance at catching a fish at Leisure Lakes than any other lake that I can think of in Central Illinois because the owners stock the lakes.
