Rainbow Trout
For a refreshing change of pace, consider targeting rainbow trout at White Mountain Lake. This high-elevation lake provides a cool, oxygen-rich environment that allows rainbows to thrive. Fishing is best during the spring and fall when the water temperatures are moderate. Fly fishing is a popular method, with nymphs and streamers being effective choices. If you prefer spin fishing, try using small spinners, spoons, or PowerBait. Focus your efforts around the lake's inlet and outlet areas, as well as along the shoreline where there is submerged vegetation. Stocking occurs regularly, so there are always plenty of fish to be caught. A practical tip: the north end of the lake tends to hold cooler water, even during the summer months. Access is easy from the main boat ramp and several shoreline access points. Remember to obtain a valid Arizona fishing license and check the regulations for size and bag limits specific to White Mountain Lake.
