Arizona Wildlife Conservation Strategy

Beaver Creek COA

Beaver Creek is a high priority management unit. The creek is stocked with catchable rainbow trout multiple times during the year. Management as a trout fishery is not in conflict with management for native aquatic species. Removal or suppression of smallmouth bass and green sunfish would help the roundtail chub population to expand its range downstream.
