Many anglers aren't content unless they're off to distant lakes for the dream vacation. The fishing may be good in those faraway places but you can probably find good fishing close to home, too.

Look for spots that are out-of-the-way and off the beaten path. You can sometimes find a honeyhole right around the corner where you never thought to look. Fishing close to home means having more opportunity to spend time on the water and having to spend far less on gas, food, lodging and out-of-state fishing licenses.
