Just take them to Wilkes Dam, no trout this time of year but put on a bobber and worm and catch all kinds of fish, suckers, carp, catfish and sunfish, all day long. Kids dont care what kind of fish as long as they are catching GL

If you are talking about Brown Trout, very few if any in the mid to lower river. You might get some up in the headwater areas, but most public access spots are fished out. The best trout fishing is on private land. Sorry.

YES that spot gets crowded but all the public access spots with good fishing are crowded like that since you are close to the city. Agreed drive around and try to find a quieter spot, even below the dams at the nearest bend away from the crowd all packed in right at the dam walls. You are not suppose to fish right at the dams anyways but no one follows the rules these days
