New Round Tank is a reservoir in Navajo 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 New Round Tank makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle. With little deep water in New Round Tank, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.

Fish and Baits

The early check on New Round Tank should stay simple: the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

For a first pass on New Round 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

During the first hour on New Round Tank, 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 New Round Tank, in spring, start with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.

A Simple Tackle Plan

To narrow down New Round 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.

The plan for New Round Tank starts here: 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.
