At that price it better be as big as a meatloaf.

Talkalai is my favorite. For big bass. They love the soft creature baits there. And frogs on top water . Giant fish in there. Point of the pines is absolutely a beautiful drive into and beautiful lake. Elk,turkey and a occasional bear are common to see. My great grandpa was married to a lady named Sue Begay. She was from there. And all threw the late fifty's and thru the sixty's my grandpa spent most his time up there. I've been all over the San Carlos reservation. And have always came back with great memory's. My Dad still says he's going to find the biggest ugliest woman up there and marry her. That away no one else will want her and he can move in and live happy on the Rez. And hunt and fish daily. I keep reminding him this isn't the 1800s. My family has definitely reaped the rewards over the years from the San Carlos reservation. Many elk hunts,bear hunts and always a blast up by the point of pines for predators. Coyotes everywhere the wild horse are.

I was near the dam. Where i was anchored, a person could actually walk up to, and camp there. Or bank fish. It would be a little hike down to the water . But do able. I have always caught fish in that cove. Biggest bass I have ever seen my Dad caught there. A 13.11 caught on top water.

I tried everything I could up until 1:30 to get a crappie bite. Only one on a jerk bait. Once I finally just anchored and just sat with a bobber and a minnow. The bite was on. Fish after fish. At 4:30 when I left . The bite was so good ,I probably could have caught 30 or 40 more. If I had more minnows. I took 6 dozen. And used everyone of them.

Thank you. I started fishing at 5:30 am this morning. Second cast on a ivory colored Rio Rico and fish on.A really fat 4 pound large mouth. Caught 3 more on top water all around 2.5 to 3. Then switched to jerk bait. A black and gold Rouge.and never put it down again. Fished for Bass until 1:30. While all the time dragging a minnow along. Nothing on the minnows. Ended up catching 7 more on the jerk bait. Biggest looked like a watermelon. Man the bass are fat there. Big giant belly and lots of girth. The wind got up so got tired of fighting it. And headed to my crappie cove. From 1:45 to 4:30 I caught 30 crappie . Brought 25 to fillet and just finished. . What a awesome day. Tomorrow will be even better for the bass. .now that I kind a know what the want. ANYTHING That looks or reacts like a minnow or shad. I did catch 4 on a bobber too. Biggest crappie was 2.7 bass caught on ultra light rod with bobber and minnow. 5.8

Will you sell just the 9.9.

That's awesome. That thing is almost the size of a elk or bigger. Congratulations

I won't know until tomorrow. Going Friday thru Monday. I will post a report then. . I have a empty front seat on Friday and Saturday. If your up there or if anyone else is and wants to fill it . Hit me up and I will find a way to make it work. My boat ain't no Cadillac. Just something that floats and gets you to point Ato B... It is better then being stuck on the bank. Sometimes 😆

There's always a good night bite there . Even late in the summer. As long as they keep water in it. . there's a cove near the dam area that is really good at night. And the river end is pretty good too.

Thank you. My boat dang sure has its share of Arizona boat rash. Not afraid of Scratches. And I haven't seen a ramp there since the late 80s. Next to the sheriff dock. Years ago. The first time my Dad remembers that he went to san Carlos was in 1970 . He was 8 .

How did you do? Where is the best place to launch a boat??? Thanks

I just called and talked to the manager working. The Soda Canyon Store has minnows at 5.99 a dozen ( ouch) .. and worms also . And a few grocery,beer,soda and etc.. items as well. Open 8 to 8

Yes I called them on last Friday. I would call them first just to make sure they aren't out. Before getting up there and then be out.

Also Soda Canyon Complex store up there at the lake sell minnows. They are open At 8 am.

Dang... Took me 4.5 hours to get to Talkalai. From 163 av. and jomax. . Guess I will go up and go pass Roosevelt that way. ☹️
