Try some trolling! Assuming you have the basic rod and reel already, add a few lures like a Rapala (not deep diving) or some Mepps spinners with a bucktail.
Bass and other types of warm water species love a trolled lure! Red colored lures work especially good on bass and pickerel. Trolling can be troublesome in shallower waters as your lure can get hung up on underwater structure.
You could also get some rubber worms and cast to the edges of lily pad areas.
When I used to bass fish the black rubber worm was a killer lure. Just cast to the edges of lily pads or toward structure like fallen trees large boulders or even docks (be careful not to hook the dock owner’s property!)
If you want to get fancy, get a couple of rods with lead core line and troll for trout and salmon! A bit more knowledge is necessary for this fishing but a bait shop owner ( like AJ’s in Meredith) can give you tips about all types of fishing.
Most if all make it fun for the kid!
