I have never caught a smallmouth in my life and I would like to change that this year.  

Anyone know of any good Small mouth fisheries in the Northern Illinois area, that are accessible for shoreline fishing (I do not have a boat).

I know you can catch em' out of the harbors of Lake Michigan in the spring, but other than that I am clueless.

HELP ME!!!

Try the Fox River.Not sure about McHenry which is north but down near the Mongomery Dam I caught some.

Its a bit south of you but the Kankakee river is good.  The Kankakee River State Park has a lot of shoreline access on both sides and a lot of smallies are caught there as well.  Good Luck!
