Arizona Redline/Fishing Fiasco!!!

Doug,<br><br>Ever fish hear, it's about 45 minutes from where I'm staying...Apache Lake, sez they have large &amp; small mouth bass and even Walleye as well asStripers and Calico! Course I'm on your recommendation first and foremost!<br><br>C

Colin,<br><br>Apache is the third in a series of four lakes just outside the Phoenix area. Saguaro Lake is the closest to the east valley where I live, followed by CanyonLake, Apache Lake and Roosevelt Lake. Saguaro and Canyon are fairly easy to get to, Apache (the last time I was there) was kind of a p.i.t.a. to get to withalot of dirt road to navigate and Roosevelt (the biggest of the four) is about and hour and a half or more from my place.<br><br>Since you're coming for the game, I was assuming that you'd be staying in the Glendale area. Lake Pleasant is the best bet from that area (westvalley). Pleasant is bigger but isn't as pretty as Saguaro or Canyon but I gather that scenery is not really what you're interested in, is it?<img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/laugh.gif" alt="image"> You can google all of them. I know that there are also videos ofPleasant &amp; Canyon on YouTube (check out Humbug Cove at Pleasant <img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif" alt="image">). I would add that if Walleye were common here, my father-in-law would come visit from Michigan a heck of alot more than his current once a year (sorry)... Bassand trout are pretty good bets.<br><br>I'll yuku you for your details...<br><br>Doug

Send me a picture if you pull a trout of any of the 5 lakes you mentioned. I fished those lakes for years and never once caught a trout. Figured the water wastoo warm for them. Caught a lot of small mouth bass though.<br><br>Doesn't look like I'll get to join in, so have fun.<br><br>Mike<br>HWsMinis

CAMERA WILL BE WITH US!<br><br>Colin<br><br>Lookin for a few of these pictured!<img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/eek.gif" alt="image">

<blockquote> Where are da scorpions???????????????????????</blockquote>I'm guessing that they've found their "dens" for the long cold (OK, cool) winter by now. Mike would be the one to ask -he's got them all over the place during the summer. It's been cool enough the last week or so that the snakes are likely heading for cover too. <br><br>I've been watching the lake reports in anticipation of Colin's visit and it looks like the lakes have cooled down to about 60 degrees - probably alotwarmer than the weather many of you have right now (I still wouldn't want to jump into it!).<br><br><blockquote> <img height="20" alt="image" src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_thumbsup.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/hmmm.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/hmmm.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/hmmm.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/hmmm.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/hmmm.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/hmmm.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/hmmm.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/hmmm.gif" width="20"><img height="20" alt="image" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/chevyhoney/beerdrinking.gif" width="45">AZ sucks<img height="35" alt="image" src="http://www.dodgetalk.com/forums/images/smilies/banana.gif" width="33"><img height="35" alt="image" src="http://www.dodgetalk.com/forums/images/smilies/banana.gif" width="33"></blockquote>Hmm... there goes that invitation...<br><br>Doug
