I'll be spending a week up in Island Park in August for a family vacation. I have a couple of questions for ya'll that I hope you can help me out with. I've never there before, but I know there are a ton of amazing places to fish! I'm not sure where to start or what to make sure I hit while I'm up there. I consider myself a novice flyfisherman, but I have a good 5 weight flyrod with floating line. I also have 3 boys (8, 6, and 3 years old) that I'd like to get out with me. I won't have a boat, but will probably rent one on one of the lakes up there.
So my questions:
I'd like to get out a couple of times by myself. Where would you recommend? Is there anywhere I "need" to experience while up there? Rivers vs. Lakes?
Second question: Where would be a good place to take my boys? I'd just like them to have a great time with a really good chance of catching some fish. We'd love to have a fish fry at least once while we're up there.
Any recomendations on tackle/techniques?
Any suggestions would be welcome. PMs are fine if you'd rather. I've looked back through some of the more recent reports on Henrys and IP and learned some great info already.
Thanks in advance!
