Fishing At Horseshoe Cienega Lake Arizona
Horseshoe Cienega Lake is popular for catching record sized brown trout. The lake freezes in the winter making it one of the few prime ice-fishing holes in Arizona. Originally built in 1960 and located in the White Mountains just south of Bog Tank its definitely worth a trip out of town. Since the lake is on the White Mountain Apache Reservation be sure to purchase a permit before heading out.
