Arizona’s hardest fighting fish isn’t what you think…(hint, it lives in the Arizona canals).
Today, it was a few giant grass carp, and lots of laughs, along the way.

The fish are here. The shots are real. And when everything comes together, they are unforgettable. If you want to learn about chasing carp on the fly, stop by the shop👍

Due to dry conditions throughout the forests and increased fire danger, the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests will implement Stage 1 Fire Restrictions beginning Tuesday, May 19, at 6 a.m.

All partners in the White Mountain Fire Restrictions Coordinating Group have decided to go into Stage 1 Fire Restrictions for public safety given the increased wildfire potential. This group consists of the White Mountain Apache Tribe, Arizona Bureau of Land Management, Arizona State Forestry, Apache and Navajo Counties, and the Cities of Heber-Overgaard, Show Low, and Pinetop/Lakeside and the Apache Sitgreaves National Forests. This group is continually engaged to adapt our fire restrictions with fire danger as we progress into the spring and summer season.

Additional information regarding the fire restrictions closure order and an accompanying map can be found on the forests’ website https://www.fs.usda.gov/r03/apache-sitgreaves/alerts
