Get On the Water in the Mount Rushmore State

South Dakota is known as the Mount Rushmore State, its official nickname, and the walleye is its official state fish, according to the South Dakota Legislative Research Council. Travel South Dakota notes that the Missouri River's free-flowing sections and four reservoirs — Lake Oahe, Lake Sharpe, Lake Francis Case and Lewis & Clark Lake — are prime for fishing, boating and water recreation.
