Default Can anybody recommend a kid-friendly lodge?

One of the best guides I've ever fished with is rofb's own
Steve Huber. A muskie might be asking a bit much but I'm
quite sure he could put you and your son on enough fish to
make the trip memorable. And the Rhinelander, Wisconsin area
is a gorgeous place to fish.

Good luck.

I agree 100% with Ken. You cannot do better than nothern Wisconsin.

If you are driving you can check out the Freshwater Fishing Hall of
Fame in Hayward too.

There are so many lakes in his area you can fish more than one a day.
