§ 04Field notesNew Mexico

Where it is

Storrie Lake sits in San Miguel County, New Mexico, covering about 502 acres. Productive zones shift through the year more than the lake outline suggests.

Seasonal pattern

Spring. Warming water pulls largemouth toward shallow, protected areas where they stage and spawn; the quickest-warming pockets lead.

Summer. Heat pushes fish off the shallows toward depth and shade; work the cooler ends of the day.

Fall. As water cools, forage and bass return toward shallower water; movement is wide, so covering water pays.

Winter. Cold water settles fish deep and slow; patience and a subtle presentation are the more dependable choice.

Key structure

  • Creek and cove mouths that funnel fish and bait
  • Weed edges and the clean lines along them
  • Inside turns where a bank changes angle
  • Submerged wood, brush, and laydown cover

The calendar decides which of these is worth time on a given day.

Forage

Bass on Storrie Lake key on baitfish and panfish; the productive water moves with the forage through the year.

Access

Launches around Storrie Lake are public; confirm seasonal closures and water levels with local sources first.

Regulations

Check current state and local regulations before fishing; limits and seasons can change.
