: SHOW LOW LAKE: Fishing is fair. The lake is down about 6.5 feet but the boat ramp is still accessible. Two fishing piers, one by the boat ramp and one near the dam are accessible. There is also a boat dock by the boat ramp. The boat dock at the boat ramp is only for boat anglers, no fishing or swimming is allowed. Bass, trout, and walleyes are being caught on lures. Try trolling Rapalas early in the morning and late in the evening for walleyes. An angler also did well catching small walleye during the day by trolling and casting a silver spinner rig baited with a night crawler. Try worms, corn, salmon eggs, and Power Bait, lures such as spinners (Panther Martin, Rooster Tail, and Mepps), spoons such as Super Dupers, Z-rays, KastMasters, rubber lead head jigs (chartreuse green), Rapalas, and flies such as wooly worms, wooly buggers, Yeager buggers, semi-seal leeches, prince nymphs, peacock ladies and black, brown or green colored nymphs. Also try fishing worms, hot dogs, and stink baits for channel catfish. The lake is open to electric trolling motors and up to 10 hp gas motors. The store is closed. This lake has easy boat and shore fishing access. Reported by: Arizona F&G |

| About: -
Show Low Lake, a productive fishery within the city limits of Show Low, is popular with trout anglers. For many, the drawing card for this lake is the large walleye lurking in its depths. Game and Fish surveys have shown walleye in Show Low Lake well in excess of the state record. Show Low also has sunfish, channel catfish and largemouth bass. On angler caught a 32-pound channel catfish here recently. A good fishing strategy here is slowly trolling a shallow-running lure for trout and a deep-running lure for the walleye. Having walleye and trout on the camp grill is a gourmet delight. A good trick for enticing difficult-to-catch walleye is putting a small piece of night crawler on the deep diving lure's treble hooks. As any Midwestern angler can tell you, walleye love worms. The more traditional walleye anglers use "worm rigs." Walleye are light sensitive, so fishing at first and last light are typically the most productive times. |
