Take Me Fishing: Homer Lake

Bring your family and friends out to the forest preserves for some free fishing fun! Kids will have the chance to win awards for the Most Fish, the Biggest Fish, and the Good Sport Award!

Basic fishing instruction will be available to beginners. Cane poles and bait are available to use, but you are welcome to bring your own. Participants 15 and under do not require a fishing license. All fishing is catch-and-release.

Adult supervision of children 15 and under is required. FREE. NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED.

For more info: (217) 896-2455 or Morgan at mduerksen-balk@ccfpd.org

Note: Per the Illinois Department of Natural Resources regulation, a fishing license is required for fishing in all Illinois waters. Licenses are not required for anglers who are under the age of 16, blind or disabled anglers, or residents on active military service. The adult accompanying a child fishing will need a license if they are assisting in fishing. For information on purchasing an Illinois fishing license, visit takemefishing.org.

Please remember that events may be canceled or rescheduled last minute due to unpredictable weather or other factors. We encourage you to reach out to event organizers before heading out to an event to verify it is still happening.
