Arizona Fishing

It holds up well for about 12 hours. Dog food when wet actually will swell up and grow in size too.. Buy some cheap nylons from walmart and tie the food inside them and in the trap... Works great...

 

Awesome im going to have too give this a shot when im at the lake soon.

 

Big lake starting to heat up.
14 in 2 days from the float tube.

Tight lines

 

I haven't done a lot of fishing in AZ but I am heading up to the RIM this weekend and wanted to take the kids (8 &10) fishing. What is the best bait/lures to use for Willow Springs?

The few times they have been out they are pretty good with the poles.

 

Powerbait 15" off the bottom is best or worms can work too. I like using a panther martin type spinner as well, sometimes a z-ray or small spoon. Bait works best for the stockers.

 

That’s good news, I’ll be up there in 2 weeks

 

Thanks!!! I'll have to give it a try and see how the day goes.

 

Any luck?

 

We got a few strikes but didn't land anything. Nothing seemed to like the power bait but did get some action off the meal worms. Some people were catching some good trouts out on boats in the deeper water, but no one was really catching much from shore.

All that matter is the kids had fun and the wife didn't complain.

 

Any luck ?

 

Bottom fishing, not really. Trolling with cow bells, tons. Friday was solid, yesterday they weren’t biting as much but still managed some limits worth

 

I’d love to get into float tubes one day. Need to buy the gear I guess.





Felt like getting out of the heat, so came up to big bear (ca) eventhough the lake is about 15’ Low. Shore fishing & not expecting much, but hopeful. Not a bad way to spend a few days by myself.

 

Tight lines bud! I'm on a boat headed out towards Coronado islands now.

 

Nice man! Was on Coronado yesterday, almost tried to hop on a day boat, but didn’t want to be driving up to Big Bear late as hell.

Good luck out there

 

Always good when the skunk is off, especially when you’re planning on eating the fish for lunch

 

Got two more, almost simultaneously, after about 20 mins in the water tonight.

 

Fresh ones! Nice job dude!

 

@Dacon let’s move the convo to here

 

Headed back to Reservation Lake in October to sit our asses in the float tubes!!!
Leaves will be changing soon and frost in the air.
Brown trout will be on the move ...

 

Anyone have any good spots to camp out by the the White River. I am going up there the 28th and I really want to try river fishing.
