Bass Fishing
Lake Pleasant, Peoria, Arizona
Bartlett Lake, Phoenix, Arizona"
Fishing At Lake Pleasant.
Anglers have experienced record-breaking catches at the lake. A variety of fish species are abundant including striped bass, largemouth bass, white crappie, black crappie, channel catfish, bigmouth buffalo fish, talapia and white bass which are almost exclusive to Lake Pleasant in large numbers. Several creeks and washes feed into the lake and the feeding points are considered as hot fishing spots. They include Humbug Creek, Castle Creek and Cole's Wash. Although fishing can be good from the shore, it takes a boat to get to the heavy action locations. Pleasant features the best bass fishing in the area
Fishing at Bartlett Lake
Bartlett Dam and Lake is the closest lake to the Phoenix area on the Verde River. The lake has a boatable surface area of 2,815 acres fed by the pristine waters of the Verde River which Indians of this valley spoke descriptively in their legends of the river's "sweet waters". Upper Bartlett Lake, Rattlesnake and South Cove recreation sites provide areas for camping with trailers, picnicking, fishing and boating and are open year-round. Trailers longer than 16 feet are not recommended. The Jojoba Boating Site provides a paved launching ramp, except during low water levels. A marina facility provides a variety of services. Fishing at Bartlett can produce largemouth and smallmouth bass, bluegill, catfish and crappie.
