Was where Prairie Creek meets the Kankakee. Some call it the bathtub. Because of the rain the water was running good over the falls. I Figured it would bring the Smallies in. Was right about that. They were all RIGHT on that seem. Keitechs didn’t work so went to Senkos. Caught 8 nearly one after the other. No size to them, but they were biting.

Sorry no picks I forgot my camera. I am more ticked I didn’t have the camera because of what my nephew caught. Out of all my river fishing all my life I have never seen anything like it.
My nephew was cast netting and caught either a minnow or a super baby fish that was TEAL in color, with a teal back and bars along its body with teal fins. It looked like a saltwater fish. I colored a picture what it looked like. It’s colors were way brighter than the photo. Any idea what it was?
