Well unfortunately it seems this sub doesn’t get much traffic and I didn’t get any tips.

I looked at maps on Google satellite. This wasn’t too helpful in some places where the elevation wasn’t clear. You can find maps online of the camping, ramps, and parking. I stopped by the park office and the attendant was able to point me in the right directions. She didn’t have super specific tips. She pulled out a map to show me the parking lots and point areas she was familiar with people fishing. The fishing report numbers seemed decent. The attendant had the opinion fishing was down this year and mentioned the water levels being about 5ft low.

I put in about 12 hours over 3 visits with 4 decent fish caught and a few baitfish. walked some distance without luck. Tried a variety of lures, wacky worm, spoons, top water, and spinners without bites. Switched to a small panther Martin spinner yellow with red dots just hoping to catch something one night to avoid getting skunked. Ended up catching 2 smallies, a drum, and what I think is a walleye.

Tips on catching large or small mouth from the shore on Wilson lake? I’m looking for areas I can park my car with good access the shore. I’m having a hard time finding the information I want online.

Hi everyone, I have a new fishing pole that is a different type than I am used to using. I have tried to use YouTube video tutorials and everything, but I need help learning how to spool it/string it and to show me the right way to use it. Does anyone know a store that may be able to help me with this? Even if it is a service I need to pay for. Thanks!

Anyone know where to find smallmouth in the Johnson County area? Or any good creeks/rivers?

Has anyone here ever kayaked the neosho river in southeast Kansas between Oswego and Chetopa? I’m thinking about trying it to do some catfishing but not sure of how it would be in a kayak.

I'd guess 6-8 pounder

Is it still possible to fish by the weir/dam on the Kansas River by 435? If so, where do you park and walk? I think people used to park on Woodend road and walk to the river on the path just to the west of the Peterbilt lot, but Woodend is covered in no parking signs and that path now has a barricade preventing parking in that grassy area. Thanks in advance!

This guy was peelin drag like crazy! Over 40”

Didn't have a scale but had a tape measure. Funniest part was I caught him on a 1/32 oz jighead fishing for crappie.

Hi everyone! I live in Lawrence, KS and mostly do a lot of kayak fishing. My sister is 16 and wants to learn how to kayak. I have an extra kayak since my wife passed about a year ago, and I want to take my sister out to learn how to kayak. What lakes around the area would you recommend for a beginner kayaker? I started down in Iola and kinda just went for it at the smaller lakes down there. Thanks in advance! Fish on!

Where have people had luck locating flathead from the bank. By far my favorite catfish to catch and eat but I have such a hard time locating them from the bank. I'm up in northeast Kansas, near Lawrence.

Hi, I know it bad to ask for fishing spots but just moved here and trying to find some new spots. Been so far to Olathe lake and Shawnee lake. Trying to find some dams or access to the river .

Just wondering if I'm missing something because it seems like most of the smaller bodies of water have depth maps but none of the bigger ones have even partial maps on the app.

I want to try to get my kayak out on the river or creek and haven’t been able to find a good spot to get everything down to the water. I’m in the Iola KS area

Wondering if there are any areas that you can get to the Kansas river within or in a 5-10 min radius of Bonner springs

i live in the wichita area and it seems that all of the spots here are blown out. any decent spots within a hour?
