Correct! Although northern Illinois is not known for its snakes the most common snake is the Northern Water Snake. I live in central Indiana where the snake is as common as the muskrat. I wouldn't think you would have very much luck up in N. Illinois but definitely get some so when you go south for some fishing you can say you caught a monster on a weedless snake. BTW the albino snake seems to work best for me. Hope this helps and good luck.
