Chevelon Canyon Lake

Chevelon Canyon Lake, in Arizona, United States, is the kind of reservoir where a careful approach pays off. Shore anglers do well casting parallel to the bank along reed lines and overhanging trees, where ambush predators wait. Boat anglers can fan-cast points and submerged humps — anywhere the bottom changes depth quickly. Lure choice at Chevelon Canyon Lake usually mirrors the local forage: small baitfish imitations in spring, larger profiles through summer.

Fishing Techniques

• For Rainbow trout

  Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.

• For Brown trout

  When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.

• For White sucker

  Fish near the bottom in slow-moving water or near structures like rocks and submerged logs; White Suckers are bottom feeders.
