Field & Stream picks best bets for goin' fishin'
That's the advice from Field & Stream magazine, which names 10 destinations where you can go fishing this winter and escape the cold without busting your budget.
Seven of the 10 destinations offer average January high temperatures of 60 degrees or above, with some well into the 80s, the magazine said. The three spots with lower temperatures Bull Shoals State Park, in Arkansas; San Juan River, in New Mexico; and Lake Amistad, Texas are worth the chill, according to the magazine, because of the quality of winter fishing.
Some of the destinations, like north-central Florida's Ocala National Forest, even offer free camping, the magazine said. Grand Isle, La., also has camping, for $12, while Everglades National Park offers camping for a $2 fee or you can splurge for an $85-a-night room at a lodge like the Ivey House in Everglades City.
Also recommended by the magazine are fishing expeditions in Aransas Pass, Texas (with camping at nearby Mustang Island State Park); and Castaic Lake and Lake Casitas, in California.
