If you get real ambitious and have access to a duck boat/jonboat...launch at Lecompton on the Kansas River. Run the river up to the Deleware. Work those banks of the Deleware...and you will find good fish crappie and saugeye both. Another great spot in your area is below the power plant just east of Topeka. 12+ fish hold there year around. Rivers below Kansas reservoirs are a great place to find trophy fish. Take some time to learn how to fish them and you will have great spots for years to come. With that said watch what you eat out of them.
