Fishing in Clark County

My son is taking my grandaughter fishing next week.  I was invited to join in the outing.  I need to renew my fishing license and get my fishing gear out of storage.  

We could fish in many nearby lakes or rivers.  Fishing opportunities abound in the Columbia River Gorge area where we live.
