I saw this article was posted recently about lake levels at San Carlos: https://www.pinalcentral.com/arizona_city_independent/san-carlos-reservoir-expected-to-dry-up-in-the-next-few-days/article_cf06fc20-7efb-408e-8e79-165ace884092.html
Here's a link to reservoir storage mapped since 2017 (it went dry in July 2018): https://waterdata.usgs.gov/monitoring-location/USGS-09469000/#startDT=2017-10-01&endDT=2025-09-08&dataTypeId=continuous-00054-0&showMedian=true
It's just under 10k now and curious what level they can't irrigate out of it, but fish could still survive.
Did they have a fish kill again?
thanks for the info, Always liked San Carlos.
it got down to 2500 acre-ft Oct 9th but then must have had some rain because it's back up to 10,000 acre-ft: https://waterdata.usgs.gov/monitoring-location/USGS-09469000/#startDT=2025-06-01&endDT=2025-11-21&dataTypeId=continuous-00054-0&showMedian=true&showFieldMeasurements=true
Some of the pictures I saw in the fall were pretty dire, but I never actually saw a fish kill - I don't know what level it would need to get to for that. Some people did fish it when it was pretty low and claimed poor fishing but the fish have to all be all stacked in there for sure, if they even survived.
