I have fished Miles park and Cherokee park quite a bit, but I stopped going because I never seemed to be able to catch anything. The only time I have done any good is right after the trout stocking at Cherokee a couple years ago. My 8 year old at the time was able to catch his first trout which was pretty cool. The boys did enjoy looking for crawdads in the creek at Miles park as well, but I never really caught any fish.
