Picacho Reservoir?

[pyle762]

So I was down at Picacho during dove season and there are signs all the way around the whole lake stating it is closed. What gives? Is it open to hunting?

Well that escalated quickly. Big Browns is a stand up dude, also cool enough to not fly off the handle about an ignorant comment.

 

Welcome to the site, it doesn't have to be dramatic. Unless Trphyhntr is posting, then it's sht show.

It has been closed to all access.

Thanks Carpcody, I went over to Picacho yesterday. Like you said, it is open and has water.

 

Big Browns, you are an A$$HOLE.

My understanding is that there are some local politics issues with the water district. So someone put up a bunch of US Gov no trespassing signs up along the canal. Technically there is an easement along the canal and the powers that be can put up no trespassing signs to keep people from traveling on that easement. These signs run all the way from San Carlos lake to Casa Grande. I have been told that since the lake is state trust, the signs there have no impact on access.

 

I drive a road in Coolidge regularly with one of these same signs, the road is on private land and maintained by the property owner, but San Carlos keeps hammering in signs.

 

The south end of the Picacho Lake is private land, but I have never seen a sign there.

 

Anyone saying the lake is closed, saw the signs and turned around. Probably the safest thing to do.

They need to have a controlled burn there. Lots of dead trees.

Just give the tweakers camping back there another year or two. I'm sure they'll find a way to start a fire.

Whisky is for drinking and water is for fighting. Even more so in the desert.
