Walters camp to squaw lake on the Colorado is a good one. 45 mi or so 2-3 days. You go through Picacho state rec area. Good smallmouth bass fishing. Really nice around picacho. Taylor Lake along the way is a great camp; good LMB fishing, as well as flathead catfish - fish live bluegill. You can find some god info online, google Colorado river boating guide map.

Colorado river is your main bet around here.
Willow beach to Cottonwood cove....very scenic. clean water great little private sandy coves where you can camp. Trout, stipers, catfish, carp. Post up your plans/ dates this sounds like a fun adventure. |

It's a lot farther than 6hrs but the lower Sacramento up here in Redding is great for this kind of adventure. Year round trout and steelhead, the fall brings the salmon up. One of the best tail water fisheries in the world.

GPS tracks
I was planning to do the Walters Landing to Squaw Lake with my wife last year but it didn't happen. I did some research on the trip and found GPS tracks for the route. If you do an internet search you will find a couple of trip reports that describe the route.
IF you open up this trip to other BWE members I would be interested in joining you on your trip, even if you do another route, This type of tip has been on my bucket list for some time. Let me know if you want the GPS tracks. I also have a PDF brochure of the map of the Lower Colorado river that details the river between Blythe to the Mexican border |

How lazy a trip is this?
Are there any rapids to deal with? |

Black canyon is amazing. I did a 5 day trip through there years ago. Sauna caves and hot springs were great in December.

Black canyon is a great trip. I've done it numerous times and its still a good trip. I'd be there this week with friends but other plans got in the way, SHOT show.
