Southern AZ fishing - Arrivaca 8-21-13

Wow, the fishing reports were "Just a bit outside!!".  I read access was difficult, but that should read impossible unless you have a float tube you can carry over your head for few hundred feet - think of an old movie with a safari.

First cove left of boat Ramp 8-21-13

The first 2 pictures are of the same basic area, the third is the first cove just north of the launch area.  I could see water in the distance, but there was algae on the surface.  The good news is the fish will be relatively unmolested IF they survive.  The only good news is that the vegetation on road into the lake was lush and green.  A sign of recent rains, but I suspect we will need a near-biblical downpour or two to bring it back up.  Then we can hope for some hippos to wash in and clear some vegetation.  Ah, no cosmic topwater bite this year.  I will hope for rains and the survival of the bass & bluegills here.
