Fishing near Los Lunas, New Mexico

Look for Los Lunas in the Valencia County part of New Mexico. The town holds close to 15,336 people. Short trips first: Rio Grande under 20 miles to the north. The channel through Rio Grande is where the water moves and the fish follow. Winter here does not stop anything. The cooler months are the comfortable ones. The sea has a hand in a number of them. The mouth of any feeder is worth an hour. The count nearby is modest, but the next ring out is not. The far ones are usually the emptier ones. No water sits inside the town line, so every trip means a short drive. If one is coloured after rain, the next along is often clear. The town itself holds nothing; the country round it does. Nothing on this list needs a long day to do properly. Start with Rio Grande and work down the list as the season goes on....
