My mother-in-law has a cabin near Duck Creek. We get up there pretty often. Navajo is a good fishing spot and there are others around there too. Have fun.

I personally like Aspen mirror better for fishing, I can get my limit quite quickly, Navajo enh... have yet to pull any fish outta it, but its a nice camp area.
And Yankee Meadows Reservoir is a nice one too, so peaceful there I really don't care if I pull anything outta it.

My daughter caught her first fish from Aspen Mirror about a year ago (sort of). She was 3 and her Grandpa actually hooked it and let her reel it in. He died a few months after that. We finally went back up there a couple months ago. When we went back to Aspen Mirror, my daughter asked me, "remember when Grandpa caught the fish and tried to make me think I caught it"? Oh well, we've been back a couple times and haven't caught anything there since the first one.

Great weather! rain & hail, then a 1/4 mile run-walk in the hail then 1.5hr more of hail back at camp!
Caravan did great hot water & heater worked like a champ! no leaks & we were all comfortable!
1 fish caught & 2 geocaches logged & our cache at camp got a little swag added.
Tried some HF back into Phx. (never heard anyone call back) worked a few Russian stations. Hawaii & then the OH & KS QSO parties too.
Blow out about 30miles north of wickenburg on the caravan destroyed the rim.
Good times... now the heat here sucks :(
