Webber Creek off the Rim near Pine. A small trout tributary of the East Verde. The river tops out around 4 ft. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The drawn water covers 41 acres wrapped in 12.6 miles of bank. That shoreline is heavily fingered (development index 13.9) — bays, points and pockets everywhere, which multiplies the fishable edge. Nothing on this chart breaks 15 ft, which makes the whole surface littoral: weeds, bait and ambush cover everywhere. Call it 3.7 mi long by 2 mi wide at the broadest reach. Gila County claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Pine Creek, is 4 mi to the west.
Early season rainbow trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4 ft. Even in summer they hold at 1 to 4 ft; winter keeps them in 1 to 4 ft. The chart's best answer is Outside-bend hole (mile 0.3) — creek channel, 3 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon and you're in the game.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 4 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Riffle & run (mile 2.8) (3 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 1 to 4 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Outside-bend hole (mile 0.3) (3 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 1 to 4 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Riffle & run (mile 2.8) (3 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 1 to 4 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 40 ft | dawn | Outside-bend hole (mile 0.3) (3 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Webber Creek carries 3 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Outside-bend hole (mile 0.3), about 3 ft down.
