Eight of Illinois’ best fishing lakes can be found in the metro-east and downstate, according to a recent report from online fishing guide Fishmasters. Fishmasters’ analysis, “ The Top 30 Fishing Lakes in Illinois ,” named Carlyle Lake, Lake of Egypt and more metro-east and southern Illinois lakes among the state’s best fishing spots. The report lauded Carlyle Lake for its expansive size and opportunities to catch crappie and catfish. “Formed by damming the Kaskaskia River, the water runs stained to murky, so brighter and louder baits consistently outperform natural presentations,” Fishmasters’ analysis of Carlyle Lake reads. About 95 miles south, Lake of Egypt is known for its year-round fishing as its water is warmer than most . You may catch largemouth bass, crappie, channel catfish , bluegill or redear sunfish onsite. “With its consistent action and scenic surroundings, Lake of Egypt delivers a reliable and enjoyable fishing experience for all skill levels,” Fishmasters reported. Here’s how the local lakes stacked up against fishing spots statewide. Top-ranked Illinois fishing spots Rend Lake was the top-rated Illinois fishing spot downstate, according to Fishmasters’ report, ranking third statewide.

Looking Ahead to 2027: New Illinois Employment Laws and Employer Obligations

Each approaching new year presents an opportunity for employers to review their employment policies to ensure compliance with newly enacted laws, and 2027 will be no different for Illinois employers. Although the Illinois Legislature did not devote as much attention to employment-related legislation as it did in prior years, several key legislative changes are worth noting, including a few that will prompt necessary updates to employment policies and procedures. Unless otherwise stated, the recently enacted laws take effect January 1, 2027. What You Need to Know Menopause-Related Conditions Expressly Protected: A new law amends the Illinois Human Rights Act (IHRA) to require reasonable accommodations for employees experiencing menopause-related conditions. Disparate Impact Liability Codified: Another amendment to the IHRA will counter current federal policy regarding the availability of civil rights claims arising from facially neutral policies. Numerous Small but Significant Adjustments: Other new and existing statutes may require changes to recruitment practices, employment agreements containing restrictive covenants, and leave policies. Anti-Discrimination Protections for Menopause-Related Conditions The Illinois Menopause Equity and Care Act (IMECA) amends the IHRA to increase educational efforts, broaden access to insurance coverage, and expand workplace protections for menopause-related conditions. For employers, the most significant provisions amend the IHRA’s
