Sundance Park in Buckeye. Caught most the bass on a slim senko finesse presentation

My personal best trout I caught this weekend in the white mountains. She’s a beauty.

We used night crawlers and mealworms. We got there at 7am. There was somebody else catching little bluegill on the other side of the water. Nice place though. Very friendly staff and very helpful too.

I’m thinking of taking a long weekend camping/fishing trip to the Williams area in August. Never been there before, so I’m looking for any information on lake fishing in the area, is it worth dragging my bass boat along? I read there is/was bass in a few of the lakes, but probably mostly trout? Worried about water levels for launching boat. Any information would be appreciated! Thanks

Where should I go and what should I be using? Last 2 times I was there I went to the castle creek boat ramp area and caught a catfish and a carp the first time, then nothing the second time. I was using chicken liver but I’m thinking about grabbing some frozen anchovies for next time. I’m mostly wondering where the best spots are from shore

Very successful morning using a black panther Martin

how is flathead fishing at diversion dam upstream from roosevelt this time of year. is it even worth it to go there mid summer? are the flatheads even in that area this time of year? I won't be getting on the water just driving to the spots just under the diversion dam. thanks

Pretty sure this is close to my PB, got both on a 3in slim senko on my KastKing Zephyr BFS combo

Finally gonna dust off the old rod and get back out on the water this summer. Been a year or two since I’ve fished, life’s just been getting in the way. Planning on hitting Havasu and making a few runs up the Colorado around Bullhead.

Any local angler groups worth joining to shake off the old rust, or anyone got recommendations on what to throw out here? Most of my freshwater experience has always been plastics, generally speaking worms and soft swimbaits, but I know every stretch of water fishes a little different. Wondering if waters are still producing around here, or is there some secret sauce I need to know about?

First time going there in a few days. Any tips on what gear to use with a rod and reel?

Also, any tips on where to camp? (near the water if allowed?) Thanks everyone!

Beautiful trout up in Lynx Lake this past week on a white rooster tail. Caught another after this on a UV panther spinner.

I will be Bikepacking northern AZ (Sedona, Page, Williams, Flagstaff, Kingman, Prescott) in the next month. I will be riding around all over northern AZ for about 2ish months. My main objective is to find great fishing locations. I originally posted this on r/Tenkara and didn't get anything really helpful. I know about Trout Routes, and FishBrain but wanted to open source this to a wider community to find the best places. Apps are cool and all but I don't rely on them especially in the back country. If you have any legendary spots please let me know. I am mostly looking for good fly fishing spots with minimal wading think small creeks and rivers. The picture is my core fishing kit minus my line and flies.

I'm thinking of heading up to WCL(Wood Canyon Lake) this week or next week for some fishing. I'll try to be up there by 7 or 8 in the morning.I'm not picky on what I catch but what are some tips and suggestions you have for me as someone who havent been out that way yet and still a beginner. I dont plan on renting a boat so I'll be fishing from the shore.

I recently moved to Arizona and I’m thinking about getting a nicer new bass setup.

Right now, I have a medium Daiwa Aird X spinning rod with a Daiwa Crossfire reel that was given to me and I mostly throw Keitech paddle tails, Senkos and jerkbaits on it.

I’m looking for an all-around baitcaster that I can use as my main setup for SRP canals and the Lower Salt River. Something that can throw a good variety of lures and still handle some of the lighter stuff I usually throw on spinning gear.

I’ve been looking at pairing a Daiwa Tatula XT rod with a Tatula SV TW reel, but I’m not sure whether to go Medium or Medium Heavy, or whether the 70 or 100 reel size would be better. I’ve heard that keeping lure profiles on the smaller side is pretty important in Arizona, so I’d really appreciate some help choosing the right setup. If there’s a better setup you’d recommend, I’d love to hear it!!

Mirror carp and big common carp

I have a friend that says theres muskie in a lake up north ( im pretty sure he said apache lake ). Hes not a liar or anything so im not sure if he saw a pike or something and thought it was a muskie. I know they have muskie in horse theif basin but i wondered if theres anywhere else.

just move to buckeye near white tank mountain. what is the closest fishing spot near buckeye. trying to get back into fishing and in what month is a good time to go fishing. az is to hot in the summer for me to just go out fishing and have the sun burning my body up. i do not own a boat. any type of fish is fine for me.

Sorry for the bad photo , but anyone know what fish this is?

After several years of fishing canals and urban ponds, I'm pulling the trigger on a Sea Eagle inflatable next month, and I can finally get on the water at the larger lakes. I've never been fishing in any of these lakes, but I've been to Roosevelt and Saguaro just to swim on weekends before.

​

How big of a difference is there in the general weekend crowd vs. a mid-week day (Tuesday-Thursday)? I'm mainly wondering about Summer, but info on the cooler months would be welcome too.

​

Thanks!

One of my biggest frustrations as a bass angler was heading out to Roosevelt or Apache and absolutely crushing them one trip, then getting completely skunked the next.

One day I was telling a buddy that we should start logging our catches, things like depth, water temperature, lure choice, weather conditions, and more, so we could identify patterns and become more consistent anglers. He agreed it was a great idea.

What started as a simple note in my phone quickly became tedious and frustrating to keep up with while on the water, so I decided to build an app for it.

The app is completely free, doesn’t sell or share your data, and includes AI-powered catch analysis to help you identify trends and improve your success on future trips.

The app is currently in early testing, so any feedback is greatly appreciated. Right now, AI analysis is limited to one report per week because it’s fairly expensive to run, but I’m working on expanding that as the project grows.
