Alamo Lake
Lake is on fire for catching crappie. You can find them in schools, roaming as singles & doubles, as well as in trees so bring your casting rod with a jig setup and be ready to cast and catch. Water temp was 67 degrees in the morning.
Bartlett Lake
Crappie fishing is still great as the trees are loaded. Most fish being caught are in the 12" size range. Bigger crappie can be found moving into shallower water as singles or doubles roaming.
Lake Pleasant
Crappie fishing is good with most crappie being caught in the 10-12" size range. You will need to hit a lot of trees until you find the tree loaded with crappie where you should be able to catch some and then move on to more trees looking for the trees holding fish. Water temp was 65 degrees in the morning and up to 72 degrees in the afternoon.
Roosevelt Lake
Lots of crappie in 25-35ft of water on the tops of the AZGFD habitats and trees. Bigger crappie are moving off of the bottom of the structure and more onto the tops of them.
