Patagonia Thursday Nighter 23rd of May |
|

The tournament as of now is a GO for this upcoming Thursday. The ramp is pretty much at a single boat loading or unloading. The tournament cost is 60.00 per team or you can fish individually paying 60.00 of course, (50.00 for main entry 10.00 for big fish). 100% payback! Tournament hours are from 6 till 10 p.m. (Please try to arrive early).
Went yesterday evening (Saturday the 18th), for launching we found that launching and loading from just slightly left of center as you are looking toward the lake (down the ramp) was the best option for keeping the trailer nice and level.
We had no issue launching and just kept the moter trimmed up and used the trolling motor. For loading we used the trolling motor to approach the trailer and once Hunter had it on the bunks straight, I had Hunter start the big motor keeping the motor trimmed up and he just placed the motor in fwd gear to assist in winching the boat all the way on the trailer. So there should be no issues if my 12 yr old can get er' done without issues or incident at midnight after whackin a bunch of fish!
Be advised there is fire in the area and there was a helicopter pulling water from the lake, so hopefully they get this contained as quickly as possible to save the H2O!
Everybody planning on fishing this tourney will just need to be extra careful and patient during the launch and load process and all should be fine. If the water / ramp manages to stay launchable, who knows maybe the 1 June Patty Elite tourney might be a GO as well?

TONTO BASIN ANGLERS ROUNDTABLE MEETING MINUTES
April 19, 2012
The meeting opened with a welcome and introductions by James Goughnour. Short biographies were read for Commission Madden, Assistant Director Riley, ex-Commissioner Mike Golightly, AZGFD Field Supervisor Payson District Natalie Robb, and AZGFD Officer Jay Sayer.
James Goughnour read a concern statement:
Over the past year, we have collected inputs from recreational and tournament anglers as well as inputs from several tournament directors and business owners. We’ve compiled these concerns into a request for the AZGFD. There is a growing concern that the catch rates and size of fish in Roosevelt Lake are having an ever expanding impact on the fishery as well as an economic impact Tonto Basin and surrounding communities. Attracting tournament and recreational anglers to Roosevelt Lake has been the life line for many businesses in this area for many years. If Roosevelt Lake can’t provide an enjoyable fishing experience for tournaments, winter visitors and recreational anglers they will simply go elsewhere. Several long time winter visitors that come to Gila County to spend the winter and fish Roosevelt Lake have stated they will not be returning next year, opting to fish in the state of Texas. Local businesses have reported lower sales and reservations in the past year. If this trend continues and a “wait and see” attitude continues to be taken, this problem could significantly impact the fishery as well as many in the communities.
Over the past several years, the number of crappie being caught has reduced dramatically. Crappie Fishing Guides who make a living taking customer’s crappie fishing and local anglers that fish more than three times per week are reporting on average 4-5 crappie per day compared with 20+ crappie being caught just a few years ago. Bluegill fish that could always been seen around the docks, marina and in the backs of coves have virtually disappeared. During the 2011 Roosevelt Lake FLW EverStart tournament 92% of the pro anglers weighed... [Read More]
