Bee Tree Tank is a reservoir in Gila County, Arizona and covers about 0.3 acres, reaches about 6.3 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 0.9 acre-feet.
Bee Tree Tank is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover. With little deep water in Bee Tree Tank, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish and Baits
A useful start on Bee Tree Tank is simple: the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
When choosing a bank on Bee Tree Tank, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.
How to Read the Water
The first look at Bee Tree Tank should cover this: use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.
Season by Season
To begin fishing Bee Tree Tank, early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again.
A Simple Tackle Plan
For a short trip to Bee Tree Tank, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.
Before moving far on Bee Tree Tank, record the wind, water color, productive depth, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
