Bluegill
If you're looking for some surprisingly good bluegill action in central Arizona, don't overlook the small lakes and ponds near Jerome. While not known as a fishing destination, the area offers some secluded spots that can provide excellent panfishing, especially during the spring spawning season (March-May) and again in the fall (September-October) when water temperatures are moderate. Look for bluegill around submerged vegetation and rocky shorelines. A simple setup of a worm under a bobber is often all you need. Access can be a bit tricky as some ponds are on private land; be sure to respect all posted signage and obtain permission where necessary. Consider exploring the smaller impoundments off the beaten path – you might be surprised at the size of the bluegill you find. A lightweight rod and reel spooled with 4-6 pound test line will make for a fun fight with these scrappy little fish. Remember to bring plenty of water, as the desert climate can be harsh, even during the cooler months.
