PS Tank

PS Tank is a reservoir in Apache County, Arizona and covers about 0.1 acres, reaches about 4.8 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 0.3 acre-feet.

PS Tank is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover. With little deep water in PS Tank, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.

Fish and Baits

One way to read PS Tank is this: the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

The first look at PS Tank should cover this: 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

While learning PS Tank, start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it.

Season by Season

On PS 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

To narrow down PS 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 PS 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.
