Im driving from Cincinnati also.
If you plan on fishing that early with an 8 year old. Wow, that would be walleye jigging on the reefs for sure. 6-7 hour trips, you pay the fee, bring your own bait and rods. This is from my exp that an 8 year old may not do well being that early in the spring. I always tell customers that April jig time is for hearty fisherman. Its normally very cool, somewhat rough, and you can not predict that much in April. April is 50/50. I love April jig fishing, but not sure an 8 yr old would do well. This is from my exp.
