Alex Flickinger I&E (Public Affairs/Community Relations at Arizona Game & Fish Department):
Earlier this month, Arizona Game and Fish biologists released over 2 million walleye sac fry into three of the Salt River chain lakes, Saguaro, Canyon and Apache. Through a donation from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, these walleye came to Arizona that same morning FedEx and were distributed throughout the three bodies of water. This is the third year in a row Iowa DNR has generously donated sac fry which have been previously stocked in Canyon and Apache, this year being the first for Saguaro. Even though these little guys won’t be catchable for a while there is still the potential to catch one of these tasty fish in these beautiful desert lakes.
