Some friends and I recently went on a trip to Shelbyville, IL for a weekend fishing/camping trip. The trip was not very successful for fishing, but we did manage to get one bass, off a plastic worm, in the spillway.
Lake Shelbyville is one of the largest lakes in Illinois and is great for camping, fishing, hunting, and boating. Millions of people vacation there year round. here are a few pics of the lake and spillway:

The lake's surface covers about 11,000 acres of water. The Kaskaskia and West Okaw Rivers provide excellent stream fishing for walleye, white bass, crappie and channel catfish. The spillway contains a high concentration of musky, and the ponds surrounding the lake are great for largemouth bass, bluegill, and channel catfish.
