Season's about over
There is some very cool weather heading in this week. I guess it'll put the fish down for the season unless we have some warm days later in the month. With no boat, it's hard to get out deep enough once they head for the deep.
There's always trout.

You got that right for sure. PLUS all this rain we are to get...geeze
Season's over?
It's cold & rainy here (S.W. MO) too but the season isn't over just time to change tactics. Try the little streams that didn't produce last summer or that were too crowded. If ya give up, it's gonna be a lo-o-ong winter.
We've had a bout of unusually cool & wet weather which has driven down my success rate to the cellar. Even in normal times ice up comes in about a month or so putting a permanent lock on things till spring. For now the long range forecast calls for a spell of warmer weather starting next weekend. I hope, hope, hope the forecast is right!
This is a great time to come west...we're in the high 80s low 90s this week/weekend....sunny and pretty...
Stripers on Lake Pleasant are going nuts...
Lake San Carlos is low and giving up twin didgit bass...
Lake Roosevelt is providing non stop topwater action and will until the weather changes (usually around 1 November), and after that you can still catch lots of bass subsurface until the middle of December...
Saguaro Lake, which is right outside of the east end of Phoenix, is so full of fish that fifty fish days, mixed bass and big bluegills, are common (bass are small though, mostly 10 to 14 inchers)...
And, down here in Tucson, I'm too dang busy to fish....dag blast it!!!
Enjoy your winter season guys...I'll sure enjoy the two or three days of winter we get each year.

It Just Doesn't Matter....
Buddy I'm with you on Saguaro. Don't even need a boat I can just wade in Butcher Jones Cove. It's a great place to fish. If you ever want to meet up let me know.
Well, Summer here wasn't so great either. I kept on catching tiny tilapia and did not have the chance to go "out there". Something always came up.
Oh well, there is trout like you said. I miss that from AZ.
