Title: Spring Crappie Fest 2026 - Reminders & Fish Fry Help Needed
Post by: OneBlade on February 20, 2026, 07:47 AM
Hey all! The Spring Crappie Fest is just over a month away, being held at Alamo Lake on March 28th.  Remember, we were unable to secure the group site so everyone must reserve their own site at https://azstateparks.com/reserve/#alamo-lake/camping.  Most AZCA members are in the D loop but there is just 1 site left there. There are still sites available in other loops.

I'm going to start ordering raffle prizes.  Reply with some new/fresh ideas for prizes and I'll see what I can do.

From the survey results, a majority of members ranked the fish fry & potluck high in the value it provides for the SCF and BHCC events.  However, to make it happen, we need people to step up to (1) run the fish fry, (2) clean fish, and (3) bring dishes to share. James Rollins was able to secure the large group site covered area for the fish fry so will be great to have that area for the meal. The AZCA has people who we be able to borrow the fish fry gear if needed.  However, the fish fry can be done using a high output propane stove and cast iron pans if you have them (these can be borrowed as well). The AZCA will reimburse the cost for oil, batter, etc. for anyone who runs the fish fry.  Please reply here or reach out to me (480-474-7955) if you can help run the fish fry or clean fish for this event.
