Yeah, in addition to the DPCA already mentioned (20 mins away), there is a spot on the South side of Joliet (15 mins away) that is usually good for some carp, and a few creeks to wade around near Plainfield.

I'll be happy to share my spots. Shoot me or Mark a PM, and we'll get you hooked up.

Also, check the Illinois Bowfishers shoot schedule thread for upcoming events. There is one this weekend 6/3 near Bloomington that's only a 2 hour drive from Shorewood. Let me know if you want to carpool.
