Many small lakes and pond in the city's southwest suburbs are quite shallow, hence they are designated "sloughs."
Saganashkee has four miles of shore line--but it's only nine feet deep.
I grew up about ten miles from the slough, trips here would have me thinking that I had traveled to Wisconsin. I fished here a few times, but I only managed to catch a few bullhead. A short walk east from Saganashkee is the Cal-Sag--short for Calumet-Saganashkee--Channel.
