OpticNerd Report post Posted May 1, 2019 I'm curious as well. Didn't the lake have another fish kill this past year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
standman Report post Posted May 1, 2019 Lake level I believe is just below 20%. Had a big fish kill last July. I know of several people that have been and not a lot of fish to be found. Here are some pics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NOTAGS Report post Posted May 3, 2019 theres that great Tribal management of their resources. Lets sell the lake water for money and screw the premier fishing. I hope their water $$$ are more. than their license and camping sales. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope their water $$$ are more. than their license and camping sales. I'm guessing that there are long-term water rights obligations laid-out contractually. Likely can't adjust and shift those obligations in a whimsical manner from year to year. Also likely that overall their would be MUCH more money to make in the 'water' business as opposed to license sales for a single body of water. At the end of the day, ALL Arizona reservoirs are here for water management first. Recreational fishing (even "premier fishing") is always going to be secondary. As a fisherman, I might not like it, but it is the way it is.... S. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roosevelt Mark Report post Posted May 3, 2019 Exactly, TNF has nothing to do with our lake levels, SRP does. It's there dam. SAN CARLOS is typical Indian crap, all about the chinga but, that's why the dam was built. Not to make a crappie lake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
520HUNT Report post Posted July 19, 2019 Any signs of life at San Carlos? Just wondering what the lake levels bounced back to after our winter rains? Is there a chance 1% of fish survived last years die off? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Will K Report post Posted July 20, 2019 The lake will rebound as usual. I'm sure there are some fish being caught. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
