Shush Be Tou is a reservoir in Arizona, near Apache County.
Shush Be Tou is a reservoir in Apache County, Arizona and covers about 16 acres, reaches about 21 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 180 acre-feet.
The small size of Shush Be Tou makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish listed for Shush Be Tou include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Channel Catfish, Common Carp, Green Sunfish, and Largemouth Bass.
For black crappie, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops; use a moving lure to search; keep one slow bait ready on this 16-acre reservoir.
For bluegill, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets; use stronger line beside wood and sharp rock; keep one slow bait ready on this 16-acre reservoir.
For largemouth bass, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover; fish the same shape nearby; keep one slow bait ready on this 16-acre reservoir.
For channel catfish, fish cut bait or a nightcrawler on the bottom along a channel edge or warm flat; keep the first route short; keep one slow bait ready on this 16-acre reservoir.
At Shush Be Tou, other targets listed here include Common Carp; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
When the bite is slow on Shush Be Tou, 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.
To narrow down Shush Be Tou, 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 focused trip to Shush Be Tou begins this way: 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.
At Shush Be Tou, 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.
Begin beside green weeds, then fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops; make one pass close to bottom.
For the next pass on this water, treat 21 feet as the deepest point, not the automatic fishing depth; start near cover and shift deeper only when bites or bait give a reason.
Match lure size to the visible food, then move after checking the same useful feature at several depths without finding bait, a clean edge, or a bite; save the heaviest tackle for deep cover.
