There is one about a mile west of there on the road south of the river.  Never been in it, just passed it on the way there.

I've been to the bait shop in that area and it's a great shop. From the DNR Access site at English Lake, go south about 1 mile, then turn west and go about a mile. It's on the same road that goes in front of the Kankakee Wildlife Offices west of Rt. 39. I'm not sure what the number of that road it. There are signs on the telephone poles. It's at a couple's home and they have a sign out front. Hope this helps!
