Tiger Tank is a reservoir in Greenlee County, Arizona and covers about 0.1 acres, reaches about 4.6 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 0.2 acre-feet.

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

Fish and Baits

While fishing Tiger Tank, 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 Tiger 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 narrow down Tiger 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

Use this plain plan on Tiger Tank: 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 moving far on Tiger 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.

Keep the first check on Tiger Tank simple: 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.
