Hi Manuel, Sorry to hear that you lost some fishing gear at Ashurst Lake campground. You may want to try calling the ranger’s office that manages that campground: 928 527-3600
I am 65 and have been fishing and camping this lake for as long as I can remember. Why this campground has never been redone like those in the Kaibab forest is a shame, Those bathrooms have been there since I was a kid? 2 bathrooms that work for the whole lake what gives? not to mention the road.
My family had fun camping and fishing here. In fact, I’d take my family back any time. This place has a lot of beautiful memories. Thank you
I have been fishing this lake for 54 yrs. Love it. Use to be ankle to ice fish there. Now they close the road all winter. Wish I could post the picture of the 7 lb Brown I caught last season. Bummer that Fish and Game has cut the limit to 4 trout this year.
