Fishing At Willow Springs Lake Arizona
Species found here include rainbow, brown, brook and cutthroat trout. There are also some largemouth bass. This usually put-and-take water, which is heavily stocked during the summer, has surrendered a rainbow trout that tipped the scales at more than 6 pounds.
Yellow Rooster Tails and salmon eggs have been effective at this lake. Flyfishermen find that dark-colored Wooly Worms usually work best. -G.J Sagi, from the essential travel handbook Fishing Arizona
