awatson Report post Posted June 1, 2018 Now that the Memorial Weekend Zoo is over...I'm gettin the heck out of here and heading to Big Lake! I usually go in mid-May, and we alway slay 'em then, but it always slows way down later into July. Anyone up last couple weekends? Any reports, info, advice, and discussion are welcome!

stanley Report post Posted June 1, 2018 Headed up to greer in a couple weeks. Never have any luck at Big Lake I've had luck off & on. The past few summers I've taken to rending a boat for 1/2 day or so. Had fairly good luck drifting night crawlers under a small split-shot. Also throwing kastmasters, z-rays, and rooster tails. Fishing luck or not, Greer, Big Lake, Alpine, etc. sure is a pretty dang nice little slice of our state, that's for sure! Have fun! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GreyGhost85 Report post Posted June 1, 2018 Big lake is best right before the lake freezes and as soon as the ice starts to melt. 2016 2017 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dcshorthairs Report post Posted June 2, 2018 I have heard scuttle that the Coconino NF will be closing next week. Wonder about the ASNF? Doug, I have not heard anything about that on the Navajo County side of things. Sounds like the stage 3 restrictions were going to hold for a while. Is your source legit on CNF closing?

This was the email the state sent out on closures for the whole state. A bit dated but still good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
