looking for good fresh water location.

Wanting to take sister kayak fishing this weekend for first time. Was wanting to go ocean but doesn't look to promising and first time for her so looking for somewhere to go located between HMB to oakdale. Any good fresh water locations that has easy access and good size fish?? Possible stripers .
Modesto area
Thanks guys

Delta or Del Valle or Modesto Res. or New Melones or Don Pedro or Turlock Lake or Naraghi Lake or Woodard and thats just about it. Maybe.

I would go a little farther up the road to pinecrest. Small lake with a speed limit. So no water skiers. It's loaded with trout a few over six# have been caught this week. You can also rent power boats,paddle boats and kayaks.

If you want a sure thing of putting her on some fish, sonoramike is dead on.

Otherwise, all the others are just a crap shoot.

Around you HMB area NONE! You have to take a drive to get on some really nice Freshwater Fishing grounds. Closer is SPD, then Contra Loma (taken for granted its a small lake but I've caught decent fish) Delta (tide factor, know them)

It all depends...what does your sister look like? 

I'd go to New Melones or Don Pedro for chance at multiple species...bass, trout, crappie, catfish. Then you can just throw out a nightcrawler on one rod while working a lure with your main rod.

Well for me I would choose the delta, but I have been fishing the Delta for about 50 years and I love the place.
