[cool][#0000ff]Depending on your "point-to-point" figures, Starvation is only about 3 miles in total length. If you stay at the main state park area, you will be right about in the middle of the lake. You can go west a mile to Rabbit Gulch or east a mile or so to the Saleratus Wash area. Both have been producing well for all species...if you find the right depth.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]You could slow troll to either area in less than an hour. If you have a decent motor, it is only a few minutes each way.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Good luck on getting the Mrs. in the boat. Just remember that when you have kids, wives or newbies aboard that the trip becomes about them and not about you. Be patient and be willing to sacrifice some of your own fishing to make sure they have a good time. That pays big dividends in the future...unless you are trying to cure them of ever wanting to spoil another fishing trip for you.[/#0000ff]
