Fishing and Hunting in New Mexico
[Oklahoma] [Colorado] [Utah] [Arizona] [New Mexico] [Texas] [All US Maps]New 
Mexico ranges in elevation from the southern Lower Sonoran Zone at
3,000 feet to the northern Alpine Zone at up to 13,000 feet plus. Small
wonder then that the state has such a variety of game. Easily recognized
species include deer and elk, quail, dove and pheasants, and waterfowl
from the diminutive and early-migrating teal to Snow Geese and Canada
geese. Less well-known are pronghorn and javelina - and exotics such as
oryx, Persian ibex and Barbary sheep.
One of the nicest things about fishing in New Mexico is the year-round season for most waters. Add the broad variety of species from panfish to trout, bass and catfish, northern pike and walleye, and you have one of the best places to fish in the nation. And don't forget about the phenomenon of winter ice fishing in the so-called desert Southwest.
