Default Looking for decent fishing 1-1.5 hours from etown

I'm looking for a decent lake to take my wife and kids out to. We have a 12' alum with a 10hp motor. Not looking for monster fish but a keeper or two would be nice. More than anything looking for good fishing to keep the kids attention. Also would prefer pike or walleye fishing. Thanks guys!!

1/2 Decent boat launch in the provincal park. First turn before you get into the main village. You can catch a eye by just putting a string in the water with a safety pin on it, the kids will catch if you get the hook hear the bottom.
The lake can get realy rough in 15 km winds tho so watch the weather.

calling is too big for a 10hp motor, go to jackfish lake or even Lawrence lake north of atha-b
