A simple tip for choosing fishing spots is go where the fish are, and this is where thousands of rainbow trout are, or are headed, for the month of May and Memorial Day weekend, which is one of Fish and Game's peak stocking periods. For information about each of these places, including maps, other types of fish that are there, amenities such as boat ramps, outhouses, etc, and fishing rules click on the Fishing Planner. Just type in the name of the fishing spot and it will provide details.
