I am going to be there that same week. My wife is from Scottsdale that's just 30 mins from Glendale. Temps should be in the low to mid 70s this time of year. But be aware it can get pretty cold at night. Defiantly bring a jacket, as far as lakes go lake pleasant is a pretty good one just outside of phoenix. I am going to Saguro the first day I am there bass fishing. Not sure about crappie in either of these lakes but both have a good striper and bass population.
