Upper Lake Mary boat launches are open. Up lake of the Narrows is very shallow (~1-2 feet deep). Statewide limits apply for the fish species in Upper Lake Mary, check your regulations (page 6). The lake level is low and launching a boat can be challenging at the current lake level. Anglers have been catching northern pike, walleye, and a few bass. Many folks don’t know it, but AZGFD stocked largemouth bass into Upper Lake Mary in 1935 and in 1951 and smallmouth bass in 1942. While small populations of both species persisted through the years, angler encounters have been few and far between. With the current low lake levels, fish are now more concentrated, increasing angler encounters of both species.
