    Thanks everyone. We'll see. I might just take my 6 year old, atleast I'd only have 1 to watch over. We went to Miles Park last weekend and had no success. Looking forward to the warmer weather and wading Floyd's Fork.
    Either way, we are going back out this Friday and Saturday. Any other suggestions for good spots is appreciated. Might try Fisherman's Lake or go back out to Watterson some time.

    Honestly the places you are going are perfect for your youngest. Mcneeley has bank access and a fishing pier. Try some farm ponds. Farm pond owners are suckers for little kids. Dad used to have me go up and ask for permission. But man that area of the river can be a monster and kids just don't have the same fear we have.

    Have you tried Waverly Park lake? It is perfect for youngsters, fish from the dam side of the corner it forms with the bank near the parking lot. Cast an appropriately sized gold panther martin out as far as you can parallel to the bank and retrieve it as slowly and steadily as can and still keep the blade spinning. Kills em'. Folks will think you're Bill Dance or something. If you go out to Fisherman's Park there are supposed to be six 'lakes', of which I only enjoy fishing three. The rest are merely glorified cow ponds.

    Well, we went to Fisherman's 2 weekends ago, and it was extremely uneventful. Maybe not warm enough yet. And I've taken them to Long Run park a few times. The fish there are very well trained aren't they? Heh. This past Sunday we drove up to Lake Jericho. It was our first time there. We really enjoyed it. Unfortunately I started getting bites just as we were ready to leave. I might have to try Waverly some time. My big disappointment so far has been Floyd's Fork. I think it will be better when the water is warmer and we can wade a bit. But the 2 times we have gone down there have been way too many people down around the canoe ramp at Miles park. Anyway, thank you all for your continued guidance.
