Conejo Tank is a reservoir in Yavapai County, Arizona and covers about 0.8 acres, reaches about 8.2 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 2.7 acre-feet.

The small size of Conejo Tank makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle. With little deep water in Conejo Tank, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.

Fish and Baits

For the next pass on Conejo Tank, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

A focused trip to Conejo Tank begins this way: 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 Conejo Tank, 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

To begin fishing Conejo 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

While learning Conejo 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.

On Conejo 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.
