A great place to fish: Lewis and Clark State Recreation Area?
For your next fishing trip, visit Lewis and Clark State Recreation Area, located in northeastern Nebraska along the South Dakota border. Nebraska's second largest reservoir, Lewis and Clark harbors a variety of fish, from walleye, white bass and sauger, to smallmouth bass and more.
Also, cabins are located right on the water, so you can stroll out the door, find a spot and go fishing. You can find bait, tackle and other supplies at Weigand Marina.
