Shore fishing can be as basic as you want for the kids, just put on a big old nightcrawler and let the kids cast where they want and let it sit. If they don't have the patience to do that, get some 3" brown plastic grubs and put it on a lead headed jig and let them cast and retrieve all they want. Smallmouth bass love this at Roosevelt. If you get to fish in the evening from the bank and want some walleye, do the night crawler thing. As far as the boat, you can fish just about anywhere on this lake and catch fish, troll for trout or jig for bass and walleye. I'm not sure what depth the trout will be, but as far as the bass and eyes, from the shore and up to 40 feet deep should do the trick.
