1st, if you’re new to fishing, the lake to pick is Bartlett (easier to get bites and catch there). Will keep your interest and enthusiasm up! Gear, depends on if you’ve got any experience with rods and reels? If none, a spinning reel will be easer to master? Next, the rest of the stuff (tackle). Everyone will tell ya something different depending on their experience or knowledge. Try going to a tackle shop like BassPro (Dobson and the 202) and find the reel area and look for an older guy-gal (hopefully experienced) and be honest with them! Tell them you’re new to fishing and plan on going to Bartlett. If you’re lucky they’ll point you to the right stuff. If you’re serious take a 1/2 day guide trip to Bartlett. Most of these guys know the lake and how to be successful and will get you headed in the right direction. Best of luck....

Since he's in Glendale, Cabela's
will be much closer for him - I think
it's near Glendale Rd. and 90th or
91st Avenue! As of fairly recently,
Cabela's, Bass Pro Shop and Sportsman's Warehouse are now affiliated ! Sportsman's Warehouse
is situated in the Walmart plaza
on Greenfield in Mesa, between
the I-60 and Baseline Rd. !

I taught my grandson the basics at Bartlett Lake.. he landed 4 Large Mouth Bass in about 2 hours..
Get some #1 hooks..
1/4 ounce bell weights
Zebco makes a push button Rod n Reel.. Easiest for newcomers.. or the most popular spinning reel..
6-8lb test line...
We use night crawlers and a Garlic Scent spray to cost the Night Crawlers..
TIP: wait for a Dark night Sky..
Fishing after a full moon in the night sky all night produces little or no fish..
Next Dark sky April 27- May 10, 2022..
Good Luck.. Happy Fishing!!
