Fishing places near Lincoln, Nebraska

[Bryce]

I moved to Lincoln from Omaha and I had to leave behind my favorite fishing location and I am very unfamiliar with lakes in the Lincoln area. Can anyone give me any good places you have had success at, or know of places that have had success. My main interest is in bluegills and crappies. Thank you for any help.

A LONG LONG LONG time ago, when I was in college at UNL, Yankee Hill became a place I spent more time at then the classroom.  That's not too far from the truth.  You can't use minnows there, so maybe it's not as good as it used to be, but the dam was full of panfish. 

Wagon Train and Stage Coach are good lakes near Lincoln as well.
