Fulghum Tank is a reservoir in Cochise County, Arizona and covers about 0.7 acres, reaches about 8.1 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 2.6 acre-feet.
The small size of Fulghum Tank makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle. With little deep water in Fulghum Tank, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish and Baits
The first look at Fulghum Tank should cover this: the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
On Fulghum 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
Before moving far on Fulghum Tank, 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
When the bite is slow on Fulghum 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
One way to read Fulghum Tank is this: 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.
To narrow down Fulghum 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.
