Any lake that you know well and that has a boat launch. That way you should probaly be able to catch fish on your first outing.

Round Valley. Easy ramp, plenty of room, easy shoreline. Stay close to ramp area for shakedown until you feel like the time is right, then blast off !!

The Loop Inn. Ask for the Jungle room. You can thank me later

Round Valley or Spruce Run would either be good choices.
