Youth fishing

My daughter has been bugging me to "get up before the sun" and go fishing.
I saw recently that they planted 3000+ "catchables" in Ft. Borst, so we are gonna get up and go see if we can catch some planters
It is a Youth only lake, open until the end of February, so what the heck.

If there is 3000+ catchables in that lake.....
We tried a worm 3 feet under a bobber, increased it to 6 feet, tried power bait, green, pink, orange, rainbow .....same from 3 feet to 6 feet off the bottom.
Then I tried "blowin' a worm" 3 feet and 6 feet off the bottom., used herring oil and shrimp oil.
4 fishing rods 1 each way ( 2 with worm under bobber 3' and 6' 1 with power bait 3' and one with floating worm 6 feet off bottom) only lost 1/2 worm and some power bait (?) no noticeable bites.
If there is 3000 fish in that 3 1/2 acre lake, I would be surprised that at least ONE of them isn't stupid enough to bite!
Oh well the girls still had a good time eating snacks and getting rained on

Borst, as in at Fort Borst State Park off of exit 82 in Centralia, youth only water and according to WDFW planted with 3000+ "catchables on Dec. 28th (
?)
I need to find another spot soon, or figure out what the deal is.
I don't want her to get discouraged.

They both have recurves too! 10# and 20#.

Need to do like I did with my kids when they were young. When the weather warms some. I would take a day off mid week, and not tell the kids. I'd wake them up early and tell them "come on we's playing HOOKIE TODAY". Make it a big deal for them. Funny thing is my boss would ask where I was headed and would showup with his 2 girls! keeps the kids interested in fishing
