About Bill Williams River

Running through Arizona, United States, Bill Williams River is the kind of river that fishes well at the right water level. Drop a lure or fly into the bubble line at the head of a pool and let the current swing it past holding fish. Long, slow glides at Bill Williams River hold the bigger fish; the broken water above and below holds the smaller, more aggressive ones. Stay quiet on the bank — river fish are easily spooked.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Largemouth bass

    Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.

  • For Striped bass

    Match the hatch! Pay attention to what the stripers are feeding on and select lures or baits that mimic the size and color of the local forage.

  • For Flathead catfish

    Fish near structure like submerged logs, rock piles, and deep holes, especially during low light conditions, as flatheads are ambush predators.
