I think that it is kinda embarrassing that we don't get any Arizona guys posting here,and don't say that you are too busy.I know that we live in the desert,but there is much good fishing here,that you should be proud of this place.And the fish caught here.Man,the scenery would turn these guys on during the winter.When you are all out fishing in February, they are at home wishing that they could.Except for the diehard icefishermen,lol.Get on the ball!!
Probably too busy fishing right now? Why doesn't New Mexico have a forum on this site, I know personally there is some pretty good crappie fishing there?
I agree. The lakes here are beautiful and the weather is excellent right now. I just barely started crappie fishing and would love to hear from fellow fishermen and their experiences.
To busy fishing?Look at the threads here for Arizona,31 I believe,I have done 3 of them,lol.
I don't think that they have computers yet in New Mexico.
Athough AZ is a great Crappie fishery, not many people in AZ that fish For Crappie post on the internet. I for one fish for them a lot of the time but if I only catch a few I don't normally post. I am planning on hitting the winter bite so I will be posting more. Anyone else want to chime in from AZ?
Where are you guys at in AZ? I dont see many exact locations. I come onto ya alls forum daily to see whats going on, as a former resident.
Hey Mac, where do ya fish? I was a Phx (Cave Creek) resident for many yrs. I have a good friend lives at 43rd Ave & Bethany Home Rd, not a fisherman. I spent many a day at the VA Hosp on 7th & Indian School Rd. I left in 1990 and one day I will hopefully return. I shoulda never left.
Good fishin to ya all.
+1 on Mac's comments. Those of us that do post usually spend more time on AZBassZone where our AZ Crappie club members have their own clubhouse to chat and share info. I will also try to post more here whenever possible.Quote:

Well, being that I have fished for crappie exactly twice, I haven't much to say yet. I will be sure to post up when I do go next though. I may be able to sneak out for a bit on Wed evening but still not sure. I think it is going to be a last minute kind of thing if I get to go.
I am in Gilbert BTW.
hasnt been too much to write about, I was thinking about heading to rosevelt, but they calling for rain tomarrow
Getting some action now,BTW I see all of your post on the basszone guys.
Yea, i post on the bass zone, mostly in the crappie section, I fishmainly crappie, but i di know alot of the tourney guys and get out and fish bass now and then,
I am going up to Rosey with a friend next weekend.He was a bass guy until he went up there with me in September and we were night fishing and was catching crappie all night until the morning.And another one also,they came over for Thanksgiving dinner and saw all the jigs that I have tied for the crappie,lol.They both carry an ultrlight rod now.Catching a bunch of fish has a way of doing that to a fisherman no matter what he says in public,lol.
My brother and i was there alot this summer too, fri nite, we both used 2 poles, and caught right at 100 crappie, sat nite i said i'm not using 2 poles, used 1, and we caught 52, thats a bunch of crappie to be cleaning
Very nice pictures.And even better looking fish.You will have all the guys here chimeing in on this post now.Yes,I second the 2 pole deal,it gets pretty complicated when they start hitting and before you have one back in the other is ready to come back,lol.And yes,makes for a while of cleaning.San Carlos was meant for that everytime that I went,lol.3 guys and three hours of filleting.
P.S. glad to see your boat,I'll know what to watch out for now.I'm in a 17' white Pro Deep V Bass Tracker.The one leaning to one side because the livewell is so full,lol.
you sound like me, most of the time i'm alone out there, but the boat is leaning to the side because of my big butt,,,lol
Awesome pictures!! Can't wait until I can post some like that :)
Why Don't Arizona Post...can they spell phish...lol Larry
Hello Bill Eveland I hope all is well be safe and merry christmas...

I have been away from the site for a while fellas but you'll be seeing and hearing from now.. I fish Roosevelt exclusively for crappie but always snag a bass or two on accident. Don't mind a bluegill now and again either. Looking forward to a great season good luck out there.
Glad to meet you Crapkid.Will you be up at Roosevelt for the AZCA meeting?We've got 3 boats going up.Mine is the only "crappie only" boat,lol.BTW,it also catches the biggest green carp, with ultralight gear,way more fun then any man should be able to have.
Where and when is the meeting I would definitely like to take part.. Ill be up there that entire weekend..
It is at Grapevine.They have a camping site there.Do you go into azbasszone.com ?Check out the crappoe forum.I forget the Road think it's Grebe Loop. Saturday 20 at 3:00 pm.
