I was hoping another bank trash person would chime in.

Whatever sir..to each their own.

I've just retired and might give it a whirl from shore this week using a slip bobber rig. Long butt drive but perhaps worth a shot.

I have no clue but speaking strictly from a fishing perspective, that's what I'd love to see 🤣. Rosy is so damned low now it's frightening. I don't get up there that often in the past 30 years, but I don't recall seeing it this low.

And also a note about selling a lot of water to cities/developments.

Man what a shame! It would be nice if the could agree on letting that lake fill for a couple of years and then keep it at least 50% full year around. Seems they could at least keep that much in it once the lake is full. Dreaming is free, right?

Any interest in a trade for a Winchester featherweight 270 WSM? with ammo? Has a few safe scars and probably 50 rounds down the tube.

Anyone having luck on crappie from the shore?

And responded

Whereabouts are you located? I have a Henry Golden Boy in 22 mag that I might be tempted to sell for the right offer. I'll have to look but think I have a fair amount of ammo too. PM if interested.

TTT

He's lucky. Mine is off and it always varies/is different every cook. I just run another thermometer on the grates and use that to turn the GM temp up or down. But it's always higher than what it says it is.

We ended up at Roosevelt. Couldn't get on the lake yesterday due to high winds and rough water. Fished this morning for bass and crappie from cholla up to bermuda flats. Not even a sniff at what we were offering. Not many fishing boats out there at least on the Tonto End. I'm becoming more and more positive that I just suck at fishing these desert lakes.

His boat so...'tis what it 'tis.
