St. Clair is a nice lake... not sure about fishing it in the colder months as I haven't been out since Oct... We have caught some rather nice trout out of there with a dropshot setup... we mainly fish for bass... I'd say try some of the deep areas...20' to 30' and see what happens... sorry, not a lot of help... lol

I was on Black Lake the other day catching trout. I ran into a game wardon and asked if anywhere else in Thurston County was any good. He said other than rivers, Black Lake is your best bet for fish now.

Is your daughter under 14? If so then Longs pond is open year round I believe. Lots of shore access and a dock to fish off of. I don't think adults are allowed to fish though even if they're with children [sad]

Long's Pond is located at Woodland Creek Community Park in Lacey, which is also home to the Lacey Community Center and Lacey Senior Center. The street address is 6729 Pacific Ave SE. Here is link to map from website: http://www.ci.lacey.wa.us/points-of-int ... unity-park" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

took a drive out there. Seems like a nice little fish pond. Lots of fowl. Not sure I would want to eat the fish, but saw a few jump! Will definitely drop a line in there.

Restarting this post line. I am heading to St Clair this weekend to take my daughter and grand kids fishing. Seen they planted it with a good amount of RBs. Anyone give me some advice as to what to use and where to go on this body of water? It looks like a big spider. Thanks.
