Benton Falls Tank is a reservoir in Greenlee County, Arizona and covers about 0.2 acres, reaches about 5.8 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 0.6 acre-feet.

On a water as small as Benton Falls Tank, one weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity. With little deep water in Benton Falls Tank, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.

Fish and Baits

A useful start on Benton Falls Tank is simple: the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

For a short trip to Benton Falls 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 early check on Benton Falls Tank should stay simple: do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself.

Season by Season

Before moving far on Benton Falls Tank, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.

A Simple Tackle Plan

When working Benton Falls 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.

While fishing Benton Falls 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.
