Im going out to Phoenix at the end of March for business but I am going early and draggin my boat behind. Im looking to go wakeboarding out there. Does anybody know of any good lakes close to Phoenix, or any Private Lakes that I might be able to get on. If any body out there wants to ride while im there i could definately give them a pull behind my SSV. I have checked out Lake Pleasant and Bartlett Lake but im wondering if there is anything closer to Phoenix that is worth going to. Also i figure the water will still be ass cold but how cold?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Erik

Saguaro is always a good choice, especially in the winter because it is warmer. It shouldnt be too cold in late March, the water temp today was 57 degrees at Saguaro.

Thanks Mike
What would be the closest city to stay the night in ? Mesa? Scottsdale? or wherever? how long does it take to get there? do they have a launch ramp?

Scottsdale is about 15 miles from the lake. It has a launch ramp.

You could either stay in Mesa or Scottsdale, I would definatly stay in Scottsdale though, a whole lot more things to do. Maybe we could hit up the lake when you make it out.

michael,
You are most definately invited to go out. I will be there on the sat27th 28th and 29th. Then i have my meetings. I am planning on going to the lake on the 28th and 29th for most of the day both days. E-mail me with your phone number and i will call you the week i am coming out and we can hook up then.
Thanks for the help
Erik
