My son and I would like to get out tomorrow afternoon and chase some fish. It has been a busy winter with snowboarding (him), basketball (him) and work/school and we haven't been able to get out very often. We are suffering from cabin fever and I am no sure where to take him tomorrow so any suggestions are welcome. We will be fishing with spinning gear lures or bait are both available. I may take my fly-rod.
We are mainly just looking to get out and wet our lines but of course a fish or two would be great!
Thanks.

McTucker is doing good also. The ice came off all the ponds today and plenty of fish in there.

I like the one to the left when you first come in. It has Rainbow in it. There will be 2 big tree stumps on the east end of the pond. Hooked around 15 trout last night there in about an hour, kept 3 to take home. I have not tried many of the others. I need to do a little more fishing there and figure out what is in what pond. Years ago there use to be signs, but kids destroyed them. I usually go down there to fish the side channel of the Snake, but it was very slow yesterday. The reservoir is backed up to McTucker now making it slow and deeper, but not good for fly fishing.
