Toronto and Fall River are smaller lakes that always have great crappie and white bass fishing and can be fished from the bank. Since most of our lake a not commercially developed you can fish all the way around most of the lakes in Kansas. If you com down towards Wichita send me a PM and I will take you out on Eldorado even though its not one of the best crappie lakes in the state it's a good Walleye and smallmouth lake. Good Luck
