Alamo Lake is a Premier a fishing lake in Arizona 2.5 hours north of Phoenix… but you would never guess you were that close to a huge City. As you drive the 38 miles off the main road it feels like you are in the middle of nowhere! Alamo lake is also known to be a Bald Eagle 🦅 Breeding zone but we were not lucky enough to spot any eagles. We did, however, see lots of other wildlife and plenty of waterfowl. Be sure to bring your toys to this destination and be prepared to stay the full 14 days.

That water shake of Roodle before his trim was amazing, he's a star!
Right! I love how his back legs wiggled to cause his back end to shake. Great camera work 👍 Thank you 🤗
Guys, I love this one. One of the big benefits of your channel is the diversity of camping spots. I travel for work and reference your videos for fun things to do, and places to stay. Thanks!
Thank you, Krystal! Right now we are in a very remote location..no people within miles and we have 3 bars of 5G. These are the most amazing places to be working on our videos. 😀
Carrie, glad to see you out and about! Take care. Thanks for the tour of Alamo Lake. You are still in my prayers.....
Thank you, Thelma! Carrie has been going for walks nearly daily and seems to be doing a lot better.😀😀😀
Wow...deer in the desert. That is unusual but what a treat 👍
Those deer really were a treat! We have been in the desert for 8 weeks now and those were the only sightings. We have seen plenty of bighorn sheep, elk, and burrows. 😀
Used to be a lot if deer in Arizona, but most of the wildlife is disappearing because they won't stop building.
Wow a beautiful romantic sunset cruise! Thank you for another informative, well thought out video. This place is definitely on my radar if I am ever lucky enough to return to Arizona.
Thank you, Beverly! We were worried this video would be too boring. 👍 We appreciate your comment. 😎
Just found you guys!! 👋 👋 👋
This lake and the hot springs is our next destination! Thank you!!
thanks
I watch many camper/van travel videos. Have to say that your filming and editing is the best I have seen. Love your programs and Roodle is the best.
Thank you, Cathy Rogers! I will let Carrie know your kind comment. She works very hard on these videos. 👱♂️👩🐕🎾❤️
Beautiful sunset views and I love the variety of wildlife! The peaceful feeling in the kayak makes me want to add one to my roof so I can get out there! Thanks for all of the drone and land info! Sounds like a valuable class to take!
Thank you, guys! We are considering getting an inflatable kayak after this one wears out. Hopefully large enough to carry Roodle along. 😀
Nice video. The running deer were beautiful, and different from any other video I've seen.
I had some unusual things happen while camping there. Birds started to accumulate in one spot close to where I was, near the shore. More and more came and joined them. There were lots of coots and grebes, plus some great blue herons, white pelicans and others. It seemed like they were attracted there by something. Maybe there was a school of fish there. It was amazing to see them all gather in that one spot so enthusiastically. Some came in from across the lake. They must have seen the gathering and came in to join the party.
Then I heard panic. I looked over there and they were all taking off in a rush, out over deeper water.
My first thought was that someone had approached them, but I looked and no one was around.
Then my second thought was a predator. Maybe a coyote. I looked for it, and saw something dragging a large bird out of the water. I grabbed a scope I had with me, and could see it more clearly and in more detail. A bobcat had a very large bird, and was slowly making its way up the hill with it. The wings got in the way of the bobcat's feet, and it could only take small steps.
When it got to some bushes, I went over.
It was a great blue heron.
Maybe an hour later, I noticed a large fish swimming around in circles on the surface of the water, again very close to where I was, but on the other side of the small peninsula. I watched and watched. It was swimming on its side, and it looked super pregnant. Its belly was very swollen and tight.
I went down right next to the water. I was sitting there checking out this behavior on my phone for a few minutes. Turns out it was probably a largemouth bass that had swallowed something bigger than it could handle. When I looked up, the fish had beached itself maybe three feet over to my left.
It was twitching its fins feebly, as if it was almost dead.
I went up to my vehicle and got an empty gallon jar to put the fish in. I also got a tape measure. It was twenty-three inches, and definitely had something large in its stomach. When I picked it up to put it head first into the jar, it came back to life and thrashed very strongly out of my hands and into the water. It dove down and disappeared.
I went back to my vehicle and had some breakfast. When I looked over, there was no sign of the fish.
Shortly after that, it reappeared, slowly swimming in circles on its side out near some branches, maybe forty feet offshore.
A little later I looked again and it had again beached itself in the shallow water in the same spot. I thought I would wait until it either died or recovered, so I left it alone and checked on it now and then. If it stopped moving completely, I would take it in and cook it up.
This went on for quite a while.
Then I checked and it was no longer there. No sign of it out in the water either.
I went down and checked out the spot on the shore where it had been. There were some wet tracks in the sand. I found the clearest ones. They were perfect, clear tracks. I took pictures and got online to get a positive identification.
Coyote tracks.
I had a few other unusual events happen there, but this is long enough now. So thanks again for the beautiful video, and happy sailing. 🌻
That must have been amazing! I would love to catch a bobcat taking a bird like that! I would have guessed the cat would have waited for night. Which makes me wonder how many are out during the day and you just don't know how close you are to them. We have been fortunate to see many bobcats but never during an ambush. Thanks for sharing your story, I enjoyed it. 😀
A lake in the desert is such a special treat! Lovely!
This is a pretty cool area! We can see why its so popular. Usual when we get this far off the beaten path we don't find anyone 😎
Thanks for the video. I need to add this place to my bucket list.
Right on! That's what we love to hear. We hope you will have a great time here. 😀
Thanks again for a wonderful video. I camped at Alamo lake as a kid party time. Almost 50 years ago I stayed at the Wayside Inn RV park two or three trailers only there then coldest beer and a good burger when you live there. I did mining claim validation for uranium for public service of Oklahoma.
Very cool, Tom! I am always looking for old mines and mining claim stakes. I bet you can spot them from a mile away! The burgers were great still at the Wayside RV Park. 😎
Years ago I caught a nine pound bass there and several smaller ones! Great fishing there even in the summer if you can take the heat. Living in Florida now so its been awhile since Ive been there. Thanks so much for the great video.
The biggest bass I have ever caught was also 9 pounds so I know how big that is! So was there a uranium mine near this lake? As a kid we use to fish this creek (in Oregon) and eat them. Only to find out as an adult that there was an old uranium mind up river. 🤪
Beautiful, thanks for sharing and safe travels.
Loved the video dear Dave and Carrie. The beginning and the end had awesome views. I loved the photography of the birds and of course Roodle shaking off the water. Great hair cuts Carrie. You always do a great job. Take care and have fun🤣😝😜
Thank you! We did have some audio issues with our GoPro camera. The media attached microphone was going out and finally died. We have a new mic to try out now. 😎
Wow a great spot. Beautiful scenery. Love the haircuts. Good thing you furthered your research as drones not allowed. I am sure the vanners and campers all appreciate your great information.
Love the videos. Happy trails. 😊
Thank you, Emile! We thought we might share some of the research we do before we fly our drone because people have been turning us into the Faa for flying illegally. We have been found innocent each time but thought this might be an opportunity to help others. It's a crazy world. 😂
Glad the sunset didn’t disappoint 😉 Freckles misses Roodle. Stood on a few ledges today and thought of you!
I felt like Freckles and I had just bonded! You and Carrie are amazing for doing that hike! Don't get too close to the edge of those ledges! 😀😀😀 We had a great time with you here and are so happy you stopped by.
@@oneadVANtureatatime I agree as if Carrie hadn’t suggested that hike I wouldn’t have known it existed and it was awesome! See you down the road!
Great video! I am hoping to start making some more fishing videos soon! 🐟
Love the matching Mohawks 😂😂😂
Beautiful, as always! Beginning to end, you both do such a great job of bringing us a slice of your life. (Thanks for the haircuts and the Roodle Song, too!) ~ Kir (and Ron)
Our pleasure guys! Thank you for watching so many of our videos and leaving wonderful comments! 👱♂️👩🐕🎾❤️
I thoroughly enjoy your videos! Take care!
Thank you, Haydee! We enjoy sharing with you.
Wonderful video! Thanks for all the info on Alamo Lake!!
Really great info! Happy trails.
Quiet calm video. Very enjoyable and relaxing. I bet Dave ate that whole burger at the end! 😋 👍🏻🚐🐕🐾🛶☀️
I sure did! This is an area you would not expect to have a burger shop. It was quite a treat! 😎
Thanks for all you do and give us
Thank you, Kathryn! 😀
I really love this video!🎉❤ I am happy to learn about Alamo lake Az from you too!
Consistently high quality videos loaded with useful travel info‼️♥️😊Thanks you guys😎
His song, and slowmo, always makes me smile...and seeing you on the water. Respect, Dave, respect. Ty for caring about being careful.
Same here! Roodle brings much joy to our day. 😀🐕🎾
Another beautiful, informative video!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you, Ramona. 😀
Nice lake and camp site. So drive to the middle of no where. Make a right and drive to the middle middle of the middle of nowhere. 😂 sounds like a great area with the campground and amenities. 👍🏼
Yes! 😂 Plus a great little burger/bar in the most unexpected location.
Another great informative vid. Loved the shot of vultures over the lake.
Does the RV park have a dump station and dumpster available for visitors?
Hi Kayte! They do have dump stations available and dumpsters. We ended up having to back in a vacant campsite to do our water fill up.
First time watching one of your videos, liked the recap at the end!
Looks like a great place tp visit.
Love the mohawks! good job Carrie. my grandson is 6 yrs old in kindergarten and wrestles and has sported his mohawk all year and has won some medals and a trophy! sunfish are good eating and the sunset was beautiful. thanks for my mini vacation! take care
I would have loved a Mohawk at 6 years old as well! I bet he enjoys it! 😎
Another great video, this is definitely on my must visit list.
Great information on the drone regulations, that is complicated.
I was looking for free camping in SC, what a pain.
You make it look easy.
Always a thumbs up 👍
Thank you, JG! Just wait until you get west, it's like hitting the easy button. Try out the app FreeROAM. We select only to show free camping only. Then we click on layers an add BLM/ National forest.
@@oneadVANtureatatime believe me the tip is much appreciated 👍
Great spot. BJ loved all the wildlife especially the donkeys. Sun set was beautiful. HAPPY TRAILS.
The donkeys were great! Late one-night one ran right past our van only 10 feet away making all sorts of donkeys noises! We have been told that they will attack and kill a dog or coyotes! We didn't realize they are such formidable animals.
Nice mohawk Dude
Thank you! It's the only haircut I enjoy. 😎👍
Hello From Phoenix!!! Good call on the Donkey. Donkeys can be dangerous if they`feel threatened.
We are hearing that now about donkeys! We had no Idea they are so formidable! We are even closer to you now I think. Currently hanging out in Sedona! 😎😎😎
@@oneadVANtureatatime Much closer, Sedona is so beautiful right now. A small herd of donkeys reduces losses from coyotes and wolves. :)
I love your videos! Very informative and nicely edited
Thank you! We appreciate your kind words. 😀
Thank you for always sharing your locations! I may check out a few, when I'm out west again!
You are welcome! We have some good locations back east as well but you might have to use the playlist to locate the videos. We have them broken down for each state now. 😀
@@oneadVANtureatatime Great! I'll be sure to check out the playlist 🙂
Thank you very much, as usual. 🙏
Thank you! 😀
Great spot. Loved all the birds and sunset was spectacular. I bet it was so tempting to do some fishing.
I wish they would just sell an all state fishing license! 😎
@@oneadVANtureatatime We say that all the time. So much missed opportunity there.
Such a relaxing , peaceful place. We enjoyed it very much. Safe travels guys. Snowed in Tennessee yesterday and 72 degrees today.
We heard about the snow! That's a crazy turnaround temperature! We got a bit of snow near Flagstaff and we were 22 miles out on a dirt road. I have to admit it was a good time. 😂
@@oneadVANtureatatime Love you guys, thinking about your and prayers sent daily.
You should take a picture of the items you donate. I drive myself crazy because I donate or throw something away and then when I go look for it in the garage I can’t find it because my brain doesn’t remember I donate the items. I spend hours in the garage looking for something I no longer have, but my brain remembers it used to be in this self. Take a picture 😊
I do the same thing, Maggie! It's so frustrating, I love the picture idea. Normally Carrie has to remind me that I got rid of the item. 😂
Would love to see you fishing more. It's just nice to see what you catch.
+Colin Fisk just yes, dave would love that but we cannot afford a fishing license in every state! I wish there was a nation-wide fishing license!
Another glorious spot! I can relate to the de cluttering chore, have an entire household of that going on right now.
It feels so good to get rid of the extra stuff! I use to be the guy that had two of everything just in case! Not anymore. 😎
Nice!
Thank you! 😎
As always, this was a wonderful video. What a great place to stay with so many options around it. I love how well organized your garage is... Looks great. I was curious about one thing, how did you come up with the name "Roodle"? Honestly, that fuzzy face of his is just too cute.👍😁
Carrie let me name him when he was a puppy. For whatever reason we always name our pets starting with the letter “R”. Since he is half poodle I just through an R in front. 😂 It seems to fit him well. Carrie may not let me name our next pet. 😂
Good morning Carrie, Dave & Doodle ! Another awesome location & amazing video ! Thank you both for being so informative on the locations and regulations ! Good job in the haircuts ! Hey Dave fish are smarter than we think. Especially when fishing. It's like they know when you walk away to get a drink or a bite to eat ! That's when they bite the best, safe travels ! Keep up the great work & keep smiling !
Our pleasure, Martin! We are having a great time sharing these locations. I hope others are inspired to get out there and have as much fun as we are. Those fish are smarter than they look! 😂
@@oneadVANtureatatime
Happy Easter to you and yours ! Sorry about misspelling Roodle my spell check. Thank you for getting back to me, Safe travels !
Nice video goes to the great job
Thank you, Rhonda! 😀
As you can see, I have started my own YT channel. A precursor to starting my own van life adventure. Thanks to you, Chrome and Kevin, I'm taking the plunge and seeking my own low cost, high speed lifestyle!!! Have a great day, wherever you are, Dave, Carrie and Roodles!!
Congratulations on starting your own channel! Many people want to try this lifestyle but don't have the courage to follow through! We follow Campervan Kevin and Chrome as well! 😀 I will check out your channel!
I'm enjoying your videos. I live in Page and plan to begin boondocking soon. New in AZ, so want to explore.
Joan
Donkeys will attack dogs and they even kill coyotes. Beautiful location. Thank you for the video. Stay safe and healthy.
I did not know that about donkeys! That makes sense with all the coyotes around. They have to defend themselves. Thank you for sharing, Badger! 😎
@@oneadVANtureatatime Donkeys especially female are used in sheep herds to protect the sheep. Male donkeys seem to get more rough. My knowledge is from an old friend that had donkeys with her sheep and when I was there a sheep hand just given birth to a baby lamb the donkey picked it up by his teeth and carried it to the fence were we where standing, like it was asking if that belonged. She now tries to get to the new born sheep and uses an old t shirt that she wore and rubs the lamb on the back. The donkeys smell it and accept them.
Beautiful spot! That place reminds us a lot of Mittry Lake (also free with pit toilets and garbage) in Arizona near Yuma. We were just saying last night that we miss the desert. We left Arizona 2 months ago. That wind is real but the sunsets and mountains are worth it!
Mittry lake sounds great! We have yet to explore the Yuma area. This is the longest we have stayed in the desert. Usually, we leave early in fear of the temperatures being to warm. 😎
Found your channel and absolutely love all the information you give 🙏🏽 thanks!!!
Me and my husband will be heading out on the road in August, God willing. I already have a long list of places that we want to go, with the help of your information 🥰
Hope to meet you guys and play ball with the Roo baby!! He is just the most active adorable fun loving dog I’ve seen😍
Ohh I have an actual real question?? What type of hiking sandals do you guys use?? We have been looking at which ones to get and figured you guys would know best 🤙🏽🌺
Thanks in advance
Lori&Ruben
We are so glad you found our channel! We hope you get to visit these locations and have as much fun as we do!
Carrie has a pair of sandals she loves called “Chaco”. She has tried a few others but they did not work for her. I don't hike in my sandals because I love my Altra hiking shoes so much! They are extremely lightweight and have the best grip of any shoe that I have ever tried.
We are excited for you to hit the road! We hope we get to meet you along the way sometime. 👱♂️👩🐕🎾
Thank You Roodle songs the best....
Thank you, Mary! 😀😀😀🐕🎾
Keeping that ax on the back door is a good idea. It could be used to rescue someone trapped in a crashed vehicle or by those in the van to exit if their doors become unopenable in an accident.
Thank you! Now you got me thinking about putting a fire extinguisher there as well. 😀
@@oneadVANtureatatime I have two fire extinguishers, at opposite ends of my vehicle. In case fire near one keeps me from accessing it, there's that other one perhaps not in a so fire engulfed area. I saved someone's car by pulling onto the freeway shoulder and putting out an engine fire.
Nice! I think about being ready for those kinds of events as well but have not had to take action yet. Great job. In the Coast Guard, we called that Semper Paratus. “Always ready”
lol.... Roodles' like" na Mom... I'm good".... but in all actuality... those donkeys would prob hurt Roodle... we use to keep a donkey with our livestock to protect them against predators like yotes and wolves or big cats... they are a pretty formattable foe. Dave its a good thing you found that out(about the no fly zone)... to save yourself from a possible fine (no one wants those)... save the tape and the coolant container (flatten those tapes, by taking a bit of the cardboard out of the middle and stepping on it) they take up less room, but too expensive to throw away. boy you were in some beautiful country Thank you for the video, from your South Dakota friend... safe travels!!!
Thank you for the Idea to flatten out the tape! I would have not thought of that. We are going to keep the coolant take and put it in on our next Coolant flush which is already overdue😂 I had no Idea donkeys are so formidable! Very cool animals. 😀
I camped at Alamo lake this winter I did catch 8 bass in two days the first day the lake was packed with a tournament and lots of weekend fishermen. I never fished a spot the no one had fished before, One spot I counted 16 boat fish the spot. I got most of the bass on point, Nothing big all between 2 to 3 pounds!
Nice! I have to know if you have ever fished for bass in Clear Lake..in Northern California? I caught my two biggest fish there and will never forget.
@@oneadVANtureatatime no I never had but I know it's a lot like the lake I guided for bass on
Hey guys. Wow, loved the drone shot of the deer. You must have been thrilled about capturing that. Thanks for the geat candid info at the end on camping here.
We’re in Bisby AZ and currently experiencing those high winds you talked about. Van was rocking last night like crazy. We too are moving more slowly than ever, no more than 30-60 miles a day if we’re moving at all due to gas prices. But that’s a blessing in disguise right? We’re experiencing more of the places we’re staying. How long will you be in AZ? Would love to meet up sometime if possible.
Btw, just downloaded onX Hunt. Thanks for that tip!
Right on guys! This has been the windest year we can ever remember. We have had only a handful of days to fly the drone due to windy conditions. Another good app is FreeRoam. It has overlays you can use for BLM, Forest Service, and many other types of land. We are currently in the Sedona area and maybe here for another week before we head north. Let us know if you come this way. 😀
@@oneadVANtureatatime yep, we use freeroam for the same thing. And who could possibly do without iOverlander? Nita has posted at least 100 places there. We’ll let you know when we get to Sedona area and hook up if you’re still there.
Ruddle has a theme song? 😂😂
As the price of gas goes up, the quality of campsites seems to increase. Direct correlation? Love the looks of this spot. Keep a close eye on Roodle around those Donkey/Burros they are a serious danger to a dog that doesn't know better and they kill canines fast.
Thanks for the tip about the donkeys! We had no idea they are so formidable until this video launched. 😎
Which side of the lake were you on?
Great stories.
We were on the eastern side of the lake at the very end of Wickenberg Rd.
Where do you think the best camping is for bird and wildlife engagement- which side of the lake? Coming in from the north or the south by the state park?
Carrie, I remember your video installing your bug screen with 3m tape. I was wondering how it's holding up?
Yes! That 3m double-sided acrylic tape is holding still in every spot we have used it. 👍
@@oneadVANtureatatime thanks for the info.
Hello. How are you enjoying your upgrade battery system?
Hi Jodi! We are enjoying the battery upgrade! It's working so well we may not even need to add more solar panels. I wish I could same the same for our Webasto heater that just quit working.😂 Hopefully it's an early fix. 😀
@@oneadVANtureatatime oh no! I hope it just a minor repair...loved Watson Lake. Are you able to say where you are now? Take care, see you on Saturday 😁👍
Did you come in off chicken springs Rd 132
What size tires do you have, do you have a spare of the same size,and does it fit under your van in the spare holder
Great question! We are running the stock Promaster size tire of 225/75/R16. So far our favorite brand is the Falken wild peak at3’s. These are commercial grade at 10ply and have given us the most miles/best traction. They are also snow-rated. They fit perfectly in the spare tire location. 😀
@@oneadVANtureatatime thanks, I also live your flicker lights,do you have a link for those
Solar Charging Lanterns ~ amzn.to/3xHCuxn
Carrie loves these lanterns! They are solar-charged plus can be charged via USB! This is our Amazon affiliated link so if you buy anything on it we get a small percentage back.
Have you ever donated something and then needed it two days later?
I do that all the time! I won't use something for a year then as soon as it's gone I need it. 😂
Just an FYI, the ASPCA does not recommend shaving your dog, their coat actually has insulating benefits in hot weather just as much as in cold. Also shaving them can make them susceptible to sunburn. They recommend that if you do shave them to leave at least one to two inches fur to protect them from sunburn. Dogs regulate their temperature through panting. We love your show, and our golden loves Roodle. as do we. Safe travels.
Thank you for the tip! That makes good sense and we appreciate any advice to make Roodles life better. 😀😀
Hi , can we all stop with the word free?
I live in an area of forestry service that has had dispersed camping for ever.
But now, been at a meeting where the forestry and blm is going to either ,charge and have only a few designated sites,or shut down for all camping if not a camp ground.
Why,because a few to many people have noticed on tube about free camping,and or dispersed means free.
So it will now be ruined,I was at one of these meeting , it came right out if it wasn't for TH-cam they would have never know.
It's not only the camping, we now get people telling whom ever asks, about these awesome places to swim and Or just be. The wrong people now know because of it being posted and giving directions to get there. The places now have been over crowed ,ruined ,trash up,
Many accidents happening. Now they are getting shut down. Many , and that is from people giving out info and how to find.
These places have been used by locals and if they wernt locals it was respected enough not to pass on to just anyone.
So 30 years of enjoying places have been taken away because of posts and people not having commonsense these days.
Same thing will continue everywhere if theses posting of free ,it's already being taken away and in the works in my areaand it will continue around the state and into other states. All because of some not liking the idea of it being free. And got that way from seeing that word enough on TH-cam.
Not singlneing to whom posted this, just hoping the word gets stopped. My state is too late but maybe just maybe other states that dispersed camping won't follow. It only takes one ignorant person that thinks it shouldn't be free and it's all over.
Maybe you all can help by not putting that word out and helping others stopp also.
Thank u
U crazy if u think there's no deer in the desert its actually overpopulated with deer and lots of different kinds , mule deer , white tail , and lots of others even rams
