Calloway Lake is a lake in Coconino County, Arizona and covers about 1.6 acres, reaches about 10.9 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 6.9 acre-feet.
Calloway Lake is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover. With little deep water in Calloway Lake, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish and Baits
On Calloway Lake, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
To narrow down Calloway Lake, 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
When choosing a bank on Calloway Lake, make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
Season by Season
One way to read Calloway Lake is this: shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.
A Simple Tackle Plan
For a short trip to Calloway Lake, 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.
The first look at Calloway Lake should cover this: 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.
