Strawberry Tank is a reservoir in Coconino County, Arizona.

Without a dependable size figure for Strawberry Tank, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.

Fish and Baits

A direct approach on Strawberry Tank works like this: the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

During the first hour on Strawberry 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

To begin fishing Strawberry 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

A focused trip to Strawberry Tank begins this way: shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.

A Simple Tackle Plan

Before changing spots on Strawberry 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.

To narrow down Strawberry 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.
