San Carlos Boat Ramp Jan 2026

Saw someone post on AZ Anglers an actual picture of the boat ramp. They wrote:

The picture looks like the dirt ramp that was used years back in 2018 when water level was lower.  It's not the actual paved Soda Canyon ramp but a short minute or two drive from there.  Does seem 4x4 would be helpful in case the ramp isn't steep enough or too steep could be problematic if not prepared.

The last report for crappie I saw was a few months back and wasn't as good as last spring.  I'm sure the crappie are still there though.  More recent non-crappie reports I saw was some big bass caught by a guy using his kayak a couple weekends in a row.

Be sure and get your permit.  Last I knew you could get it online: https://sancarlos.nagfa.net/new-online/index.php

If you go, please post a report here.
