Which launch ramp did you use? Hows the weather? I think its time for me to head back there. I love that lake cause not gas power motors. The best time to fish that lake is in the evening when the sun begins to set. Fly line a red and black culprit worm. Cast it and let sink for a few seconds then begin to pop it back. If you dont get bit reel in real fast and recast. Or try a ribit frog both on top and just under the surface. Where did you stay at when you were down there? Very lil fishing pressure.

Vulture I used the second boat ramp ,this plastic jobber will float in 4 " of water.
No trouble here. The first one has weeds you have to plow thru to get to the main body.
Did not look at the one at overlook point.
Ole frog lives in Quartzsite Arizona.so I fish this area when I get the urge.
I wanted to try Hart Mine Marsh ,but NWLR has it closed for work.
Not a lot of people fish this lake and at times the skeeters will eat you alive.
Most of the time I fish live bait ole frog is just to darn old to cast all day

Befor you get the giggles about Quartzsite ole frog lived in Manhattan Beach California for 30 years.
I was on top of the hill, could see Rocky Point all the way to Point Dune the whole South Bay.I love the desert and would rather live here .
I don't even lock my doors,I like it better than the South Bay
Been retired 24 years this month and thats a lot of fishing.

I used to hanf around Cibola a bit duting goose season. Could not get used to the water coming out of the tap red colored though. Great area to fish too.
