Fishing At Cholla Lake Arizona

Cholla Lake, is one of Arizona's most important fisheries in the northeast section of the state. It is also managed as a Navajo County park.

To reach Cholla, take I-40 11 miles west from Holbrook toward Joseph City. Take Exit 277 south and follow the signs.

The Lake typically impounds 380 surface acres and is a storage facility for a nearby power plant. Warmwater routinely pumped into the reservoir promotes weed growth which translates into a relatively productive warmwater fishery. -G.J Sagi, from the travel handbook Fishing Arizona

Thats too bad. Keep posting updates like this and the site will get better. Its still a young community built site. I wouldn't rule it out as a fishing spot though. ;-)

We tried to go there June 2011 and it was closed to the public. The signs say that it is now a waste water pond. Very disappointing that this site does not give up to date information!
