Showlow lake, Rainbow, Fools hallow boat ramp access

Recommended Posts

Im taking family up north fishing for the week.  Taking my 21’ triton (no big motor) and am hearing i cant launch at fools hallow due it being  out of water.  Has anyone been to the 3 lakes i mentioned above and can i launch my boat.

Not the lakes you mentioned but I can confirm Willow Springs is low and Black Canyon launch is way out of the water.

We caught and released a couple footballs fishing big baits this past weekend.

I was at fools hollow on Sunday. Very low on West ramp but you can launch with some maneuvering. 

Caught a couple

Yes, Willow.

The fish in that pic had a red treble hook and 2 feet of 8-10lb line with a split shot hanging out of her mouth that was removed before release. I caught another similar in size that I tried to quiety release but was swarmed by kayaks and left 20 minutes later. It made towing the boat to the weekend camping trip worth it in short order though.

Fools Hollow is Full and boat ramps are open!  Water is very muddy and lots of debris floating everywhere. Caught a nice bass at Fools on a white spinnerbait in 3 ft of water.

Rainbow was still extremely low as of yesterday and can't launch a boat.
