Fishing from shore with the kids, Shore fishing

Hello fellow anglers, seeking a little help my buddy and I want to take our kid's camping and fishing. we don't have a bait just want to be fishing from shore camp out drink a few beers while we fish from shore with the kids. We live in Kitchener, so somewhere close don't want to travel 2 or 3 hrs. Any suggestions would be great Thanks. be safe and tight lines.

I grew up fishing the grand and conostoga rivers around kw there are a lot of local spots to catch anything and everything try taking the kids to the ponds by Breslau lots of panfish pike bass and carp also lots of walking trails along both rivers and a few dams one in stjacobs another out old king towards Cambridge

Valens Conservation area. Pinehurst Conservation area. Elora Gorge conservation area. Mountsberg Conservation area. Shades Mill conservation area, but no camping at Shades Mill or Mountsberg. Good fishing at all five places, but Elora gorge is really not that safe depending on the age of the children. Lots of current in the river, and many cliffs etc. etc. I don't want to offend you, but alcohol and water is never a good mix. Even if it is just a few beers, you never know what can happen. Good luck, stay safe.

Yup....enjoy the kids and leave the beer at home.

X3, don't need beer to catch fish.

Conestogo (GRCA) used to have camping and you can fish below the Dam. there's also a beach to swim by the boat launch

Thanks for all of your suggestions, a big help.
